Does this happen even outdoors with a clear view of the sky?
Which camera is mounted?
hi , yes happens outside with clear view sky , the camera that came with ill double check which one
One though might be a short circuit somewhere that is either drawing away power needed by GPS or is creating interference with the GPS.
1.) Is there another camera you could try to see if the issue is a camera problem or a drone problem?
2.) Is there another Q500 you could mount the camera to see if the issue is a camera problem or a drone problem?
3.) Do you know if there was a crash or if the shell was removed just before the problem showed up?

my thoughts is something wrong or short in camera , basically brand new , I don't have another to try or swap
It's a good bet you are right.
Do you have a multimeter you can use to at least look for an obvious short between the contacts on camera and/or drone?
Have you checked yet to see which camera is mounted?
