This firmware works with the SkyViper Journey and QGroundControl:

https://firmware.ardupilot.org/Copter/stable-4.0.3/skyviper-journey/arducopter.abin

ArduPilot has released version 4.0.4 of other Copter firmware, but not for skyviper-journey.

Later versions of ArduCopter for skyviper-journey build OK. But when flashed and used on the drone, it can't find any GPS satellites. Everything else looks ok, but without GPS, relatively unusable.

The official SkyViper ArduCopter firmware is version 3.6 or so. It doesn't work with current QGroundControl, afaict.

Note, this occurs in the skyviper-journey web page, where GPS status can be seen. It isn't related to QGroundControl.
