15.1 What
The X100 has a GPS on-board, which is being used for:
●
executing the flight path.
●
shooting images.
●
giving a first estimate of the image positions.
15.2 Landing heading
When creating a flight plan, you need to define a landing heading. This is the direction from
where the X100 approaches its landing location during the final leg of the landing circuit.
Ideally this direction is:
●
Against the wind
●
Free from any obstacles

obstacles, you can use the Virtual-GPS software to define a accurate landing heading value.
