Ok, thanks. It sounds helpful. I will try it and let you know.

Jaime.

Okay you are using exactly what I was until My GPS broke. Yes the subsystem is in the airframe file.

this should be what it says but change the baud to whatever yours is. Ucenter should tell you what baud rate it is talking at.  One thing I didn't like about the PPZUAV's GPS 13 board is it's lack of an led to tell you when it has lock. If you are getting lock on U-center and this code doesn't work, then I'm not sure what the problem is. I could look into it though.

The subsystem is loaded through the airframe file, isn't it? About the baud rate, I should review how to do it. I am using a Ublox (LEA 6H mounted on a Paparazzi 13 board). About the PPM, we have checked the order several times and it seems to work properly, the only problem is that we cannot switch to manual mode to fully testing it.

Thanks,

Jaime.

Jaime, I have had a few of the same problems with my yapa and GPS. for GPS, i would check your baud rate and make sure the correct subsystem is loaded. what type of GPS are you using?  as for the RC, I would check your PPM and make sure that is changing like it should. an o-scope is probably the easiest way to do that. if the PPM signal is changing correctly check your RC file and make sure everything is in the proper order.

Hello,

Trying to get my RC working I have noticed that I cannot switch modes. Once I open the ground control station, it always stays as auto 2. I think this may be related to the fact that it doesn't identify any GPS signal and it works in a kind of failsafe mode automatically, can this be the reason? There is also an error in the Paparazzi Center saying "Unix.Unix_error(2, "read", "")". How can I get my GPS working? I have configured it with U-center and everything is ok, however, it never works when connected to Yapa.

Thanks,
