Hi @tony-white,

Thank you for the response :slight_smile:

We have not used the boat a lot, but things have been working without issue for the past month. The situation without the issue was repeatable. Nothing changed, no software updates and no changes in the hardware. Only just now I updated the BlueOS to version 1.4.2.

Please find the system logs from BlueOS via the link: HydroScout-3 logs

Hi @tony-white, any results from the logs?

Hi @OttoGeometius -

Please set to Serial5_Protocol to none, as only one input should be set - as mentioned previously. Multiple GPS configurations could cause the issue - basically the system is starting up and the autopilot is not receiving the data from the UDP, or has started to use the standard GPS on Serial5 rather than your external input.
I do see “Name ‘GCS Client Link’ already being used by an existing endpoint.” in the logs - you may want to double check your Mavlink Endpoints for duplicates? It also seems you’re using Mavlink Router, the older solution - trying Mavlink Server, selected at the top center of the Mavlink Endpoints page, may improve your results.
