TinyGPS

[kopinke]

Hi,
It seems that TinyGPS feature has been removed in 2.3 pre source code.

What is the cause for that decision - I could be enabled/disabled in code so I do not understand?
Please put it back!^^

@EOSBandi
I' also interested that is there anyone who uses tinyGPS and GPSfromOSD ?
It seems quite abandoned and sometimes buggy.
I recommend to drop it from the main codebase.

@Hamburger
Tinygps is gone in pre v2.3 now. (since r1585)

Hi,
I've read the topic (viewtopic.php?f=8&t=3989&start=20#p42062), but not fully understand.

Is TinyGPS buggy on the 328p boards because my homemade FlightControl is based on Arduino Nano and I've planned to extend the PCB with TinyGPS on 4313 with sonar and gps?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I don't know if it's buggy or not, but it seems to be unsupported for a long time, and for sure not widely used.
We could keep it in the code, but I understand EOSBandi point as it takes some more time to understand the logic behind and keep it for each GPS code evolution.

Hi,
Thanx for clarification @ Alex.

BTW:
At the moment it is the only solution to connect sonar to multiwii (as war as I know) therefore the code should not be dropped.
I think there must be at least a dedicated topic where people could vote what should happen before dropping "wertarbyte" enhancement.

Ahoi,
