I’m not asking vendors to pay for these videos, so opinions are mine alone.

My biggest issue with GPSs mounted like that is not the GPS itself but the magnetometer. I have been moving the GPS opposite to the battery cables to help with this issue. Another pet peeve of mine is that those small GPSs with magnetometers don't show where it should be pointing, you have to search for the information or look at the magnetometer chip itself to figure it out.

See my video on compass alignment. It isn't too tricky if you follow the process. Most of the popular GPS and Compass units have the default orientation now so work with the defaults... Happy flying

@@Painless360 is it need to face the NORTH before calibrating the compass? or not necessary? thanks for the answer

Great tips. I have a new Flywoo Goku GM10 Pro V3 on a new plane build. Everything is showing blue in inav, I am getting increasing messages and 18 satellites, and yet, after 18 minutes still not getting a lock. Do you have any additional recommendations that might cause this delay? I have tried this woth my VTX on and off. When plugged into the computer, inav shows exactly where I am.

Turn off your FPV gear as covered in the video. And then see if it locks. Most likely interference... Happy flying

I configured mine with gps and compass but since i heard in 7.1 you can use only gps, I unselected the compass and that took away the Nav modes.

How do I set the GPS only for nav modes

Covered in the release notes... Currently, if you wish to fly a multirotor without a compass. You will need to enable a compass (fake is ok) to change navigational modes in Configurator. You should disable the compass after making the changes. This has been fixed for a future release.

Thanks for the tips! I have a question specifically for fixed wing foam planes and GPS. Do you think that foam is blocking the GPS signal or make it work sub optimally? That said, is it ok to put the GPS in the battery bay of a foam fixed wing plane? Cheers!

I've mounted a GPS under thin layers of foam, tape and plastic and not noticed any loss of performance.. Happy flying!

I have already seen GPS mounted upside down with the antenna facing the ground!😀

Not seen that here, yet. Hopefully, those following my builds on this channel are seeing how it is done.... Happy flying

Ive got a quad /gps that works fine in BF but when i converted it over to iNav it doesnt read the gps at all. I even loaded BF back on and it still works in BF but no go with iNav. Yes I have the uart set the same as BF and I do have GPS enabled in the Configuration tab. Any suggestions?

What GPS is it? Ask in inav discrod also

You don't mention the GPS type... INAV stopped supporting NMEA compass protocol recently so you'll have to check the one you have supports GNSS... Happy flying

@@Painless360 Thanks so much for responding. It is a brand new M10 GPS and compass. The compass is working without issue. i think it is foxeer.

While I have my quad connected to my computer It locks on the sats and shows on the map my location. Only problem I have ,No sats are showing in my DJI goggles It flashes a red sat ,but no sats like in betaflight. What is the reason this could be happening. Cheers

Have you watched my dji setup videos? What troubleshooting have you already done?

@@Painless360 I have never come across anything like this I have everything I want in the goggles after the hack, there' is nothing I can think of why it'ss doing this I could understand if rx and tx were wired incorrectly but there not as I get all the sats locked in while on betaflight It's just not showing the sats in the goggles. That's why I asked if anything comes to mind?
@Painless360 Ай бұрын
It could be a few things, sats not locking when DJI unit is powered due to interference, font file issues on the goggles, something wrong in the setup in INAV... Best of luck
