Is that OK for GPS running at 4Hz

Posted by frye on November 6, 2013 at 12:47am

When I was working on some NAV problem, I noticed that My 6M-U-Blox GPS is working at 4Hz.

Is that OK?

Is the controller will automatic configure the GPS?

Should I change it to 5Hz?

    If possible you should set it to 5hz.  It will probably still work at 4hz but certainly 5hz is better.

    Arducopter does try to configure the Ublox to output at 5hz when it first connects.  In AC3.1 we have additional checks and if it's running at less than 5hz it will resend the configuration.  If possible we will try and make it warn you as well, perhaps as part of the pre-arm checks if it's not running at 5hz.
