Ever wish you could ditch that annoying USB cable while working on your microcontrollers? In this episode, I share how I finally untethered my embedded development board using a Raspberry Pi – a real game-changer for my workflow!

Then, we dive into the exciting world of GPS for my FPV drone telemetry system. Join me as I recount the struggles (C++ library headaches and mysterious scrambled data) and the triumphs of getting the MTK3339 GPS sensor talking to my STM32. You'll hear about the detective work to find the right pins, the debugging breakthroughs, and the sheer excitement of finally getting a solid satellite fix.

It's an honest look at the real-world challenges and rewarding "aha!" moments of building complex systems. Tune in to hear the full story and what's next for our drone telemetry project!

In this episode, you'll discover:
  • My new wireless embedded programming setup
  • The unexpected hurdles of integrating the MTK3339 GPS sensor
  • My debugging journey to finally get clean NMEA data.
  • The thrill of achieving a satellite fix and verifying my location
  • A sneak peek at future plans for better accuracy and data logging.
Listen now and let's keep building, creating, and learning – together!
