Autopilot++ v{0} for GeoFS
First install Autopilot++ using the installation instructions below.
After installing Autopilot++, load GeoFS and open the "Nav" panel. To activate the master switch, click the "Disengaged" button. Once the master switch is enabled, toggle the sliders next to "Altitude", "Heading" or "Speed" to activate these modes.
Click the "Heading mode" button to switch between the following modes:
- Heading mode
- Lat/lon mode
- Waypoint mode
In the non-heading modes, the lateral mode of the autopilot is always activated. To turn the lateral mode off, first switch to "Heading mode", then toggle the switch for "Heading".
"-----" indicates that vertical speed (V/S) is under automatic control.
To set the V/S manually, click the V/S input and enter the value to set.
To return V/S to automatic control, clear the input and click outside the input field or press Enter.
