Flight Planning Software - Innoflight GALAXY 950 Operating Manual

Flight Planning Software

The flight planning software (INF Planner / iGCS) and autopilot interface tools can be
downloaded and installed from Google Drive links to these file locations are:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1YuaVV8yqhx1vUbudSB5T4JqatF_VYArP.
You will need to download 4 tools:
1. INF Planner or iGCS
2. Jupiter Autopilot USB Driver
3. Jupiter Autopilot Software
4. Jupiter Log Tool
Before connecting the autopilot to the GCS tablet, it is important to download and install the
USB driver to enable the autopilot device to be recognised.
The GCS has been designed for extended range use; we utilise a long-range FCC approved
900 MHz data modem. For BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line of Sight) operations it is possible to
use 2 GCS systems and Daisy chain them to the Galaxy to allow extended flight operations.
The diagram below shows how two pilot teams could conduct a 10km or further corridor
flight. Pilot in Command 1 (PIC1) will take off; at around 4km PIC 1 will communicate with
PIC 2 and pass over control of the Galaxy to PIC 2. This gives PIC 2 the ability to continue the
mission and land while PIC 1 transitions to the next location 20km away (10km from PIC2
location). This allows a lot of ground to be covered in a very safe and efficient manner.
Note: The Galaxy does not have an approved waiver to be used beyond line of sight and
must be operated to FAA P107 guidelines unless the operator has received the appropriate
waivers and licenses to be used outside of Part 107 regulations.
