GPS on MultiWii 2.3

Hello, I am trying out my first quad with a GPS module and multiwii controler.
I am using the Multiwii 2.3 and Crius AOI (respectively the Hobbyking version of this board).

I got this GPS: GY-NEO6MV2
http://www.banggood.com/GY-NEO6MV2-Flight-Controller-GPS-Module-For-Arduino-EEPROM-MWC-APM-2_5-p-915384.html
I can not get the it to comunicate with the Multiwii. respectively I get no GPS satelites locked.

I have set the baudrate to 9600
Enabled U Blox protocol

If I conect the GPS to u-center I can see it get a fix on GPS satelites so it is working... but nothing in the Multiwii GUI.

Ok one question, the Multiwii code mentions  u-blox-config.ublox.txt that is used when uncomneting the Ublox protocol but I can not find it anywhere. Any Ideas if?  :shrug:

Thanks

Hi, just an update I got the GPS working by enabling the NMEA protocol instead of Ublox, I';m not sure if this module can only operate in the NMEA protocol and not in the Ublox but it';s working and that';s fine for now. I';t true that the module was pretty cheap so it';s not an original U-blox chip as far as i can see...

Anyway, I still suspect that the obscure file u-blox-config.ublox.txt that the Multiwii code mentions could have something to do with this. Not that it bothers anyone here I supose ehm...
