Loss of GPS Failsafe?

ArduRover Miscellaneous

Hi!

Looking through the params, I’m not seeing a means by which you can tell the rover to shut down if it loses GPS lock. I’ve had cable/impact failures with the GPS that cause it to lose GPS communication, and then the rover ‘goes wild’. I’m curious if there is a param that I am missing?

Thanks!

Hi Tim. No there is currently no option to take action i.e. go into HOLD mode should you lose GPS lock.
If that happens the rover will try to use dead reckoning which will work for a small period of time and after that its anyone’s guess.
Thanks, Grant
