Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Dead GPS?

That's what I'm afraid of.  The GPS is hardwired, and I have to fix or figure out to how get the thing fixed by Wednesday.  I don't necessarily need to have GPS to fly manually, and luckily we have another board in the lab for a separate plane that I can sub in while this one is getting fixed.

Did you check the receive pin on the cable coming from the gps if you have a remote gps. If you have a hard wired gps check the solder connections.   It sounds like the line transmitting from gps has lost its connectivity to the processor.

So in the process of testing my autopilot board, I was able to take my plane outside and get a GPS signal from it.  Since that test, the plane took a severe hit in the lab and had the tail broken off.  Now, my GPS isn't working.  Everything else seems to function, except GPS -- and I either get a bunch of 0's or a blank page in the GPS signal page in the gcs.  Any ideas?
