NMEA 0183 $GNGGA Support

I found that if I used the specific baud rate for the $GPGGA being sent from my GPS to 115Kbaud I was able to get the signal on through to UDP 192.168.2.2: 27000 no problem. If I created a bridge for any other baud rate, it would not get through. It seems there is something hard-coded only to accept 115Kbaud.

Hmm, interesting. I’ve brought that up with the software team in case there’s some issue with the bridges service.

… I went to a Ublox GPS (Version 8 which allowed both GPS and Glonass giving a tighter position) which I could set for an update rate of 5hz which satisfied the EKF3 and it is a solid green LED.

Glad to hear you managed to at least get a working solution

@mcook

My goal was to try to run a mission with the vehicle on the surface from one waypoint to another using the GPS for position but it seems that running missions isn’t implemented in Ardusub yet. Oh well, I learned a lot in the process. If anybody has any thoughts on running a mission with BlueROV I’d be very interested to know.

It may work - please see this thread for some context
