Hello,
I have just the Mediatek via Fahph.com and after tests with the 1.5 of Pirate the blue led is fix after 45 at 70 s. and after i don't have the 3D red led....
I receive this days the gps and i think there' s a firmware problem....
i want update with the september version, but i don't have the usb cable...
Is it possible for connected via the rs232 port ( db9 com 1 port of my computer)...?
I think connected :
input of gps ---------) out txd pin3 of female db9
output of gps ------) in rxd pin2 of female db9
the gnd of gps -----) in gnd data pin5 of female db9
And the 5v ---------) in my little regulated power supply 5v
Are there any cable or other for the db9 pin .?
Good week at you !
Thierry

If you have normal FTDI cable you can easily connect to your GPS with it.
Check your wiki pages on how to connect FTDI cable and Mediatek together.
If you still cannot update it, please send it back to jDrones and we will fix it for you. (jDrones is taking care of all old Fahpah customers).
Hello Sebastian,
And thank's for your respond, i waited 2 weeks for have a "good firmware " via Fahpah.com, i test with this config...
#define IsGPS // Do we have a GPS connected?
#define IsNEWMTEK // Do we have MTEK with new firmware?
#define IsMAG // Do we have a Magnetometer connected? If have, remember to activate it from Configurator !
#define UseBMP // Do we want to use the barometer sensor on the IMU?
#define CONFIGURATOR // Do se use Configurator or normal text output over serial link?
And there's not the red led....
I must buy a fdti cable and update i think.....
Good week end at you !

no!! rs232 from a pc puts out about 13V signals, you would kill your unit
you need a signal konverter (like MAX232) to use this com-port
