The flips worked here, I'll try 0.18 with 2.2.6 tomorrow and let you know.

Hi,
did anyone tested this MT3329 GPS? Seems pretty cheap... maybe too much?

From what I heard, the MT3329 is older technology. There is a new GPS module. The MT3339 is the latest chip from MediaTek.

I have a Drone1 that is acting wierd. The arduino goes through the boot process but when I flip a switch on my DX6i, I get the RED and BLUE led on the arduino go solid and nothing happens.
Can anyone tell me what it means when those 2 leds go solid?

Thanks,

That's a trip back to SETUP mode and finding out what is going on when you flip the switch...

Everything works fine in setup mode.

Is there a way to test the serial port?

Just FYI LS20031 suggested by miru is MT3329, so the chip itself should not be a problem. It is rather the rest of the components that can be better or worse (e.g. antenna).

Can you link to the rev 0.19? I'm assembling the mod after what I assume is a bootloader fail on the macgyver mod and I'm just making my own now.

Would anyone have a spare mainboard for sale? I think i blew the board of my drone 1.

Ok. Actually I wanted a MT3329 based because it should work with ArduCopter as well (I'm building a quad from scratch) so wanted to buy a GPS module I could switch for testing from Drone and ArduCopter.
So if this MT3329 works for MiruMod I'm ok

Hello All, I'm just in the process of gathering the parts to complete this mod, I'm very new to arduino, I have the software connected and talking to a Leostick (I wanted to get ahead of the game while I wait for my arduino pro min to be delivered)
My question is what s required to to get the mod on to the Leostick, just curious.

Miru tried out a couple of modules so he may be able to comment it this one is any good.

BTW I'm not familiar with Ardu project, but you may want to make sure it will work with serial interface (and not i2c) GPS (Mirumod requires serial)

I don't have one of the newer LS20031s with the MT3339 chip, but since the LS part number did not change, I would assume it should work.
