Hello,

I have been using SkyDemon for several years with an iPad (without built‑in GPS) and an external Dual XGPS150 (latest firmware) without any issues, until my last flight yesterday.
SkyDemon now shows the message: “Waiting for location data / This model of iPad does not have a GPS receiver.”

In the Dual app I can see valid position data from the external GPS, the device is connected 

Everything was still working fine in November during my previous flight.

I also tried to add the receiver via Connectivity → Add Bluetooth Receiver (only Bluetooth LE device ?), but without success.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you, and best wishes for the New Year.
