    I purchased a new 859 ( the new model) three weeks ago and I am having a few issues. The first two weekends it ran great. Last weekend it powered off a few times (no idea why, new battery so not that) and I also kept losing GPS and getting the warning that the gps unit was disconnected. Which is weird because it is an internal gps system. Anyone heard of these issues. I am a little concerned as it is so new and I have a few trips lined up back to back. Whenever I had an issue a shutdown and restart did fix it.

    Mine bird has done the same. Was about ready to send it back in. Ended up being poor power connections. Cleaned up connetions. No more issues.

    Does it have the latest update? I have had to do a few updates to some new birds this year, in order to work properly.
