Base + rover launched since 30minutes, sending "Automatic Base Coordinates" return wrong longitude.
Good one is -1.1380...

You are not the first one to notice this bug. First tests show it is a transmission problem. Messages are decoded and used without any precaution for the moment. We could take benefit of the checksum present in u-blox binary protocol to check every message integrity in order to discard uncorrect ones.

Ok, could it be an issue with telemetry vs GNSS ? I use dragonlink dipole antenna.

I notice when using these antenna that I have less fix but telemetry module get a solid fixed led. I used standard 3dr telemetry module, I will try with 500mw and different power source

It would be great if you could give it a try with a separate power source. But it could also be a simple error of transmission. In Europe 433 MHz frequency is quite jammed and as there is for the moment no checksum check, one error in one byte will give a false result because the arithmetic behind is a simple average of coordinates.
