I tested using 7-Nano and found the following issues.

  1. In CUAV 7-Nano 4.5.6bate1, the ST status light is always on white and does not flash, but in the latest 4.6.0, the LED works normally.
  2. We have modified the PDB design, the latest BATT_AMP_PERVL=24
    BATT_VOLT_MULT=31.
    I will submit the fixed PR soon.
    Thanks to the developers!

I have a Garmin GPS 18x LVC module that I need to integrate with a Pixhawk 6C. I’ve tried all the integration steps and settings in the Mission Planner application, but it just won’t detect the GPS. The GPS itself is working fine since I’m receiving the NMEA strings, and the Pixhawk is supposed to accept NMEA strings as well. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks

Hi @Rosario_Rodrigues,

I guess you’ve set GPS_TYPE = 5 (NMEA)?

Yes, I have Set gps type and the baud rate too. Contacted Pixhawk regarding the same and they said that garmin isn’t supported by the firmware of pixhawk. I would really appreciate any help.
