Michael Oborne's awesome APM Mission Planner now includes a very cool Ground Station mode. Check it out in the Xplane sim above--full cockpit dials, stats and moving map!

I've updated the Mission Planner software in the Download section, as well as rolled up the latest APM 2.0 bug fixes in this zip file. If you were having any trouble uploading waypoints download these two and that should fix it.

    John: it caches the map files, so you can do Mission Planning on the bench with a net connection, and then continue to use it (changing your mission or using the GCS) in the field without a net connection.

    This sounds really cool. Does it require an internet connection for the maps to work? Or will it run while out standing in the field?
