how to do Ground Test?

Guys im  new in APM and Flying.. 

 

but i want to test my autopilot system before i do real flying because i dont know how to fly. 

 

this is my final year project and i want to present it so i want to do first or at less ground testing.

 

there is any guide or way to do ground testing?

 

i want to do waypoint "mission plan" in HK GCS or anything and when i move the plane it respond to the direction and the Servo move according to mission plan. 

 

my setup,

 

-APM 2.0.12

-IMU 

-Ublock GPS

-Zigbee

    You have three options:

     

    1) Xplane simulation, with servos connected to APM

    2) Use the GPS simulator that comes in the HK GCS distro and connect a FTDI cable to your GPS input pins on APM to "fake" the GPS

    3) Drive around in a car with the plane.
