During my testing to find the problem with SBF GPS functions I think I have uncovered a bug if someone could duplicate it and confirm.
I would recommend this be done with the props off.Procedure:
Power up and wait for LED to flash green.
Switch to Loiter and observe the LED going blue.
Switch back to Stab LED goes green, and arm.
Move throttle up so it doesn't auto disarm and change to loiter.
Refusal tones sound but LED stays green.
Move throttle down in loiter and disarm.
LED stays green starts to flash as expected.
While still in loiter arm again, LED stays green and goes solid, giving the impression you are in Loiter but in fact you are in Stab.I found this because the SBF GPS will not go into any auto modes and generates a GPS Horiz error.
But I can envisage this happening if someone has a week GPS that is not sufficient.There is evidently something amiss with the 3D Fix/HDOP analysis if we get a green light for auto modes but it then refuses and goes blue when we actually switch into those modes.
