Can I run Mission Planner with GPS Emulator only, without any APM hardware?

Hi All,

I would like to know if I can run Mission Planner with signal just from GPS Emulator (from HK GCS).

I don't have yet the APM2 hardware (not other APM hardware) and I was thinking to play(learn) partially with mission with GPS Emulator signal. I just want to see the map moving and trail from GPS, not all the features.

If yes, which kind of protocol should I select from GPS Emulator?

Thanks,

Chris

The current answer is "No." I was hoping to add MAVlink, but then the protocol was changing and the MAVlink website is so unreliable it's never up when I would go back looking for it.
