The GPS antenna which is a part of delivery (Red Box only) should be installed somewhere in the cockpit where a good
satellite contact can be established. Never install the antenna close to another GPS antenna. Minimum 15 cm of space
diversity is required.
Flarm unit will not work until having GPS 3D, means antenna installation is an important fact.

I have a FLARM with constant 51 error message. Several times I have inserted micro SD with 7.25 in root directory, red etc lights flash then it stops on Error 50 or 51. How do I recover .... I note the new 7.40 release. I fly in Australia so the data on cable cars etc is of little relevance? See pictures at https://www.weglide.org/flight/514559
