Default Oudie Issues

Hi Bill,

Please contact me about the 5V battery issue. I've sold many of those
batteries and use them myself. This is the first issue that I have heard
of. It may be as simple as a charging cable issue. Also, the unit must be
turned-on to work. Let's talk through it over the phone sometime.

Best Regards,

Does the Oudie 2 have a baro altitude sensor?
I had my Nano connected to the Oudie and supported by an external battery
source. The battery failed, the Oudie reported primary gps data lost and
reverted to the internal gps for the rest of the flight.

Post mission I compared the Nano log to the Oudie log and noted the baro
altitude in the Oudie file went flat about the time of the battery failure,
but it had a good gps altitude trace. The Nano had both baro and gps
altitude data.

This leads me to think that the Oudie 2 does not have a baro sensor and was
recording the Nano data before the failure.

My next flight I connected the Nano USB to Oudie RJ45 supported by ships
(aircraft) power. No problems.

Paul, the 11,500 mAhr battery I bought at the SSA Convention failed on its
second flight. I cannot charge it or get any power out of it. Glad I had
manufactured a Y power cable to support the USB to RJ45 interface.
