# Parameter Download failures
|
||
|
|
||
|
The majority of parameter download failures are caused by a communication link which is noisy and has a high loss rate.
|
||
|
Although the parameter protocol has retry logic for such a case it will eventually give up.
|
||
|
At which point you will get an error stating that QGC was unable to retrieve the full set or parameters.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Although you can still fly the vehicle in this state it is not recommended.
|
||
|
Also the vehicle setup pages will not be available.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can see the loss rate for your link from the [Settings View > MAVLink](../settings_view/mavlink.md) page.
|
||
|
Even a loss rate in the high single digits can lead to intermittent failures of the plan protocols.
|
||
|
Higher loss rates could leads to 100% failure.
|
||
|
|
||
|
There is also the more remote possibility of either firmware or QGC bugs.
|
||
|
To see the details of the back and forth message traffic of the protocol you can turn on [Console Logging](../settings_view/console_logging.md) for the Parameter Protocol.
