    On our Voxl 500, I can write a mission, read it back, and everything looks good. Takeoff required is disabled, max distance to first waypoint and between waypoints is set way over what the mission is using, and yet, when I flip the switch, it just says "REJECT AUTO MISSION". Do you know what might be causing this? QGC says "Ready To Fly", and it sees 11 satellites.

      Hi @Nathan-Sullivan,

      What does the little horn icon say when you click on it in QGC? Sometimes there's more info on the issue there.

      What kind of GPS lock do you have?

      What other switches do you have enabled?

      Are you using outdoor parameters? Maybe it's configured for indoor mode?
      The outdoor parameters are set here: https://gitlab.com/voxl-public/flight-core-px4/px4-parameters/-/tree/master/helpers/m500

      Thanks,
      Rich

        @RichieRich I changed the parameters, and got it to work - thanks! I had a 3D DGPS lock, which I had assumed would be good enough, but that rejected still with 11 satellites. Once it obtained 13, it was able to work.

          Awesome, great to hear! Yeah, that's a sneaky one that's gotten me a few times 🙂

          Thanks,
