Re: Naze32 hardware discussion thread
Very weird.
Do you have video of it doing it? Sure you don't have low battery cut off or soft-off enabled in ESCs? I guess not.. but still, it doesn't sound like FC related, although swapping to CC3D would indicate it is FC related.

Also, in my experience, nanowii is pretty crap.. I had one replacement already and often have to use USBASP to flash the board via ISP header (something wrong with bootloader).

Did you check the manual? You just need to connect Rx/Tx to RC Pins 4 and 5 (not necessarily in that order) and ground and +5v to any of the gnd/+5v headers. You'll of course need to configure it in CLI as well for your particular GPS.

Yes, you connect to those Tx/Rx pins, note that they are shared with the USB interface due to lack of real USARTs until Naze64pro SMP edition.
KV Team 2.2 works fine with Naze32/Baseflight. I think you need to enable Boxnames or something in the KV Team OSD GUI setup, but YMMV.
