About Me:
I am very keen aircraft enthusiast, and particular enjoy building model aircraft. I have also recently started working on building gas turbines from old turbo chargers.

"I have a similar problem. I have been testing my APM2 with the MediaTek GPS and the first time out the box the GPS took in the order of 45 minutes to download the almanac and get a fix. I thought maybe it's because I am in the Southern hemisphere…"
