 What do you mean exactly ? If you have changed your airframe file, you probably
want to re-upload the new version to the Tiny. You can also use the "Upload"
facility provided by the setting tab of the GCS
(http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/index.php/GCS#Settings).
 Or do you mean that you cannot change any value from the GCS (i.e. the value on
the left side in the setting window is not correctly updated) ?

 Only an historical error :-(

 You *don't* want to fly without the uplink connection !
