I am thinking I may need a new gps module in my drc-4 after a crash. I am unable to get it to connect to gps after the crash. Any suggestions for troubleshooting and how do I determine what to buy for a proper replacement?

Have a link to the quad unfortunately think cost of replacement gps and time probably outweighs replacing the whole thing.

With an oscilloscope that can decide uart signals you can get text dumps out from the tx pin after a GPS is powered up and sending data but still need to put the text through a parser (I found a few online that do it). There are a handful of different encodings and baud rates used by different gps modules for the serial communication part back to the flight controller.

Would check for any physical damage to the wires/connections though maybe something can just be resoldered down if just a wire popped loose (otherwise looking to eBay for parts probably)
