Hello i am new here i have a question about the GPS ublox M8n
recently i bought a new one but when i connect it to Pixhawk for the first Use, only a Blue led who flashes once and then stop
what i have to do ?
( i have Pixhawk V1)

Hello
What you are seeing is normal.
When powered up the blue LED just flashes once, then nothing happens whilst the GPS searches for satellites, when it sees enough to get a ‘fix’ the blue LED flashes continuously to indicate it has a position location ‘fix’
That period of time (a few minutes depending on how good a view of the sky it has and when/where it got its last fix) is normal

Hi Stevie, I know it’s too old but I am stuck in my GPS ( ublox Neo-M8N) and when I go outside it didn’t turn blinking green, its big blue led is blinking always and the stich is blingking red.
Then I didn’t get the right outcomes from nsh (mavlink console) terminal, if you have a knowledge about it could you illuminate me please, because I finished all the issues about GPS in discuss forum but I didn’t find the solution:
nsh> gps status
