Multiwii SE v3.0 with UBLOX GPS Module V2.0 Problem

Post by Gratizzz »

Hello guys,

I'm new here but red a lot of threads already.

Now I have a Multiwii SE v3.0 with a UBLOX GPS Module v2.0 (with compass).

When I wire all things up the UBLOX GPS won't power up.

GPS is on the serial port (-+rxtx -rx tx crossed) and the compass (only SCL and SDA) connected.

I did a check on the +- on the serial port but no 5v here, that's why the GPS won't power up.

Is this something that I can fix in the config?

Please help on this :).

Config Multiwii v2.3:

#define GPS_SERIAL 2
#define GPS_BAUD 115200
#define NMEA
#define GPS_LED_INDICATOR

Hi,
I have Crius AIO clone board, and on it the serial connector lacks 5V ..
Just guessing, but perhaps your board has the same problem .. try to take 5V from some other pin.

Hi Pihlerm,
Thanks for your quick reply, I'll try your suggestion and hope it works.

Does someone knows about the 5v (serial port) on the Multiwii SE v3.0?
