Why won't the GPS lock on my Blade Quadcopter?
- ZZachary EllisAug 11, 2025
Several factors can prevent your GPS from locking. Heavy overcast or solar flares can interfere with the signal, so wait for clearer conditions or for the solar disturbance to subside. Ensure the aircraft is outdoors, as being indoors will block the signal. Obstructions blocking the sky's view can also be a problem, so move to a clear area. Finally, a nearby video transmitter or having the CGO1 camera on can interfere; try repositioning the transmitter or turning off the CGO1, allowing the GPS to acquire, and then repowering the CGO1.
