    I'll get the .dat files shortly if you think it might help.Just performed a very basic test in the back yard, didn't fly as the light was fading but I powered up and got a GPS lock then when to pick it up and lost the lock (I assume if your palm is over the top of the drone it blocks the...

    Maiden Flight -GPS issue
