Hi All, just wondering if somebody can help shed some light on how I can get the GPS to work.
I have tried external antenna as well.
I just built the quad tonight and cant get a fix in apm planner or tower.
What is the correct syntax to launch with external antenna? (please update doc with example)
sudo ArduCopter-quad -A udp:192.168.1.101:14550 -B
or
sudo ArduCopter-quad -B udp:192.168.1.101:14550
If I try:
pi@navio:~/Navio/Python/GPS $ sudo ArduCopter-quad -B udp:192.168.1.101:14550
Raspberry Pi 2 with BCM2709!
Init APM:Copter V3.4-dev (e36ead50)

I have compiled SPIDEV python module, when I run example:
pi@navio:~/Navio/Python/GPS $ sudo python u-blox.py
Current GPS status:
gpsFixOk: 0
gps Fix status: no fix

If I make and run C++ example:
pi@navio:~/Navio/C++/Examples/GPS $ sudo ./gps
Ublox test OK

Repeat forever...
Any ideas on what to try next? I use osx and dont have access to windows easily so cant use the u-connect as mentioned elsewhere.
Many thanks Jimmy.
