Ublox neo modules are not reflashable, but they not need it at all.... You need the u-center software to config the u-blox module. Here is a settings file for NMEA. You can download it to your module with the tools->GPS configuration menu... Once the binary protocol parser is committed to Multiwii ...

Re-Post to find the right topic Just pIcked up a nice ready made AT328 based I2C module, would it be difficult to modify the ATTiny code to run on it? I have an HC-SRF04 kicking about, between them it could make for a very simple to build and low cost I2C sonar sensor, any thoughts http://www.rctime...

Okay, To test out UBlox Vs MTK I've ordered a NEO-6M module from RCTimer and AT328 I2C board to test in place of my MTK based Navigatron, do I need to re-flash the UBlox? Is there a guide to which firmware / settings we need, obviously I understand that I2c is on hold ATM while 2.1 is finished, but ...

the MiniGPS v1.4 can make changes, I have the same GPS thanks! it sounds strange but i will try... )) are you sure that after reconnecting the power it keeps the settings? could you check your gps firmware version (located on "About" tab of MiniGPS program)? i.e. you have used this "...

Okay, I've done a lot of testing and whilst I'm sure that the GPS is working (the copter rotates to target before moving off) I don't feel it is working right. Position hold = drifting copter, starting from level I don't see much correction after a sizeable drift, I have to intervene before it goes ...

So, In MiniGps where the NMEA sentences are GGA, GSA and RMC = 1 they are turned on right?

But does this mean they broadcast only once every 10th hz cycle, would I get a better fix from bumping them to 10?

There is a link to the GPS update package a few pages back, also you need to upload a blank blink sketch before you update the Navigatron, you can find this in sketches>example in Arduino Eos, I'm right when I say that the magnetometer needs to be activated for GPS to work, wouldn't it be worth addi...

Hi EOSBandi, congratulation for your incredible work. I have the Navigatron I2C GPS (GTPA010) v1 from Flytron. I have a quadcopter with MultiWii_dev_20120504, what must be done to integrate the gps ?! I read your tutorial but I am a little bit lost. Reading the tutorial, It seems that changes are r...

This is the message I get from Powerflash when I try to update the firmware, when you say cross the Tx & RX lines, do I need to make an adaptor cable between my FTDI and the navigatron crossing these two lines? [Flash Download] Fail!!(Download) BROM_CMD_START_FAIL [Finish] Take(6) secs to test. ...

Disaster, Can you break down the update flashing sequence for the navigatron for me particularly which file is the download agent and which the ROM, all I get after flashing a blank blink sketch is a fail from powerflash using the FTDI connector to program as per the Guide in EOS Bandi's archive, Is...

Flash it, then use MiniGPS to set your parameters (GPS frames, update rate, WaaS) and save them to the GPS flash memory (on the Test tab, press shift+ctrl+S to get additional tabs in MiniGPS tool) yo have 8 slots to save... Note that Waas could be used only with 5Hz update rate.... Just flashed the...

Probably a stupid question but, If I'm using I2C GPS, should I comment out the serial GPS line in the sketch, also shouldn't the POS HOLD and RTH Boxes change colour when selected in the GUI? I only ask as I don't feel that the two functions are working for me, The copter seems to drift of in the la...

are cycle times better on MEGA? asking because I'm thinking about going to mega because promini has some limitation when used on hexa + 2 axis gimbal (lower resolution and so... http://www.multiwii.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1619&p=13395#p13486 ) and mega board is so damn cheap , with na...

It's definitely not an address issue. i2cgps address is 0x40 BMA180 is 0x80, and i flown today with a Crius board (not an SE). Did you guys disabled LCD_CONF and VBATT Code in config.h ? I'm afraid that even with the short i2cgps code we are running out of ram memory. The ONLY change between r21 an...

EosBandi, 2 items of feedback: 1) With this release my pitch and roll inputs to the FC no longer have any effect even though the board will arm and hover just fine , the TX inputs appear correct in the GUI, input provided by CPPM on a futaba mapping, worked okay on your release from earlier this wee...

BTW, What is the consesus? Is it OK to fly the post MW2.0 dev code ? I've flown quite a few packs on the 5th may dev version with i2c GPS enabled (but obviously not with usable RTH or POS) - absolutely no issues with it. I think quite a few other people are flying the latest dev. Massive thanks and...

EOSBandi, Just curious but I'm guessing that the I2C variant will require a combination of Co-ordinated I2C Gps (Navigatron in my case) and MultiWii sketches to function correctly. One to provide the GPS co-ordinates and one to act on them, how much can you offload to the second processor? Can the A...

No complaints, thanks for working on it all.

I look forward to testing the I2C version when you are finished, keep up the good work

I built a simple ESC flashing tool (for ESC's with pads e.g HK SS30A AND 20A, Hobbyking F-20A) from a 2x3 pin header plug, the pins from servo connectors and a UsbAsp programmer, no need to clamp as it's so quick http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showpost.php?p=21262287&postcount=1970 However I've ...

Request: FrSky Telemetry support (A lot of us use it for CPPM and they have a good history of sharing protocol information) sending telemetry data in a format the FLD-02 can directly use would be sweet! Even a simple batt voltage audible warning to the module would be invaluable. HC-SR04 Sonar suppo...

Have you set the MInCommand too low? With a Hex if you set mincommand below 1000 motors 5 & 6 go high meaning they won't arm. http://www.multiwii.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1290&start=140 Try this, connect to gui and use subtrim and end points on your radio to ensure your outputs are ...

[/quote] Ordered .. and I think I am the first ! Keep up the good work ![/quote] Nope, you are beaten! But the forum locked me out and it took an age to get a new password! @Mhelihk have you pre-flashed the boards with EosBandi's code, if not presumably you do so via FTDI. @EosBandi could you consid...

Can we (meaning you smarter types) add the ability to turn off Aux3 & 4 as camera gimbal inputs in config.h whilst using cam stable? e.g I have a Roll and pitch capable camera mount but would like to use Aux 3 for MultiWii functions but not camera Roll and keep Aux 4 for camera Pitch only Also ...

Found another bug Hex6X Mode in 2.0 Pre2 seems to have the pwm outputs on D5 & D6 reversed, the esc's go straight to the setup tones during power up, 1.9 is a-okay. Also I second the Crius SE sensor issue, the magnetometer is at least 90 deg out in the gui, haven't flown it to test the others I...

Hi MelihK, Saw your post on the Navigatron I2C gps, any idea when it's likely to be available for purchase, I can't find it on the flytron.com site? Also any thoughts on integrating Sonar too, seems like these are the last 2 major sensor inclusions for MultiWii and are missing from most all in one b...

Spoke too soon, my bluetooth module seems to have failed, vibration in flight might have shorted it across a shock mount nut.

If I can resurrect it I'll let you know!

I started a new thread because its a complete another subject than GPS integration. I have all the needed stuff home here to make a I2C GPS module, as far as i'm plannin to produce a PCB that will give out the GPS data via serial PIN AND I2C pin. As far as I want to do it the correct way, I would l...

I'm in for testing, I already have a Bluesky Bluetooth module tested with Android Multiwii configuration tool on a Tegra 2 tablet, trouble is everytime I try to connect with my Archos G80 (TI 4460) It crashes out. Graphical orientation display and PWM in out / would be great plus it opens the door f...
