Declination

Using the Jupiter Autopilot PC Interface, connect to the autopilot via USB and navigate to
the GPS page of the interface. At the bottom of the page is the declination setting, change
this value to your area's declination.

Entering Compass Calibration Mode

Place the aircraft on level ground and turn on the GCS. This should be done outside and at
least 15 meters from any metal objects. Power on the Galaxy and wait for the Status
LED/GPS Puck to flash green continuously. When conducting a compass calibration always
make sure that the DRS-10 is in the unloaded position (silk removed, and deployment plate
released) to avoid the system activating and damaging the carbon structure of the DRS-10.
• To enter Compass Calibration mode: Use the autopilot mode momentary switch. Press
and release the switch fast 4 times to enter calibration mode.
• The LED status will show a solid blue light when the Galaxy has entered compass
calibration.
• Pick up the Galaxy and, while maintaining a horizontal attitude; slowly rotate around
the GPS puck with the aircraft in the XY axis until the LED status changes to green and
blue.
• Once the LED status changes to green and blue stop rotation.
