Internal GPS not working in EdgeTX 2.11.1
Is there an existing issue for this problem?
- [x] I have searched the existing issues
What part of EdgeTX is the focus of this bug?
Transmitter firmware
Current Behavior
I connected a M8Q-5883 M8 GPS on the AUX1 port of my Radiomaster TX16S after I configured the GPS in Ucenter on NMEA output only and the UART1 on 9600-8-N-1. Under OPTS: I have internalgps. I enabled the GPS in the transmitter under hardware and started the Internal GPS widget. I don't see any discovery's under Telemetry. I don't see the GPS communicating with the transmitter, RX and TX are correctly connecter (RX=>TX and TX=>RX)
Expected Behavior
I expect to read the GPS output on the screen, I get nothing at all.
Steps To Reproduce
See the text at currect behaviour.

I'm sorry to report that the issue is in your setup. It is working fine as shown bellow:
Oh yes this is really helpfull...
As a reminder, this is not an end user support tool, just a bug handling tool, and what you report doesn't seem to be a bug...
So what are your settings used, what type of GPS, did you test this on 2.11.1, because date says 13 apr. what are the uart settings etc. ? Just saying that it is working doesn't help anybody. It doesn't work in my setup with the settings I posted, and I don't think I did something wrong in my setup so for me it's a bug.
Tested today, (radio date and time is wrong), 2.11.1 using ublox m8n gps that was used during this feature development
Well I can confirm the GPS is working on a Radiomaster TX16S MKII EdgeTX 2.10.1, but not working on a Radiomaster TX16S MKI EdgeTX 2.11.1. The only two possibilities remain: A) The UART on the Radiomaster TX16S MKI EdgeTX 2.11.1 is defective (From factory, never used) B) There is a bug specific for the Radiomaster TX16S MKI EdgeTX 2.11.1
Radiomaster TX16S MKII EdgeTX 2.10.1
Radiomaster TX16S MKI EdgeTX 2.11.1
When I connect a FTDI adapter to the UART (AUX1) and select "Telem Mirror" I see data on my terminal, so this can mean that the UART is OK:
Mk2 and mk1 are electrically 100% identical and therefore share the same firmware
Than the RX of the UART can be defective, I don't know how to test this quick
Similar issues in v2.11 v2.10 is fine #6518
