I know it's early, etc...but how does the GPS position hold work?
I'm using NG with Mtek and when I turn it on, I'm not getting any action.
Not really seeing much in the configurator or manual either...
I appreciate the tips!

I've just got telemetry added to my ardupilot and have a good working connection with the GCS software on my laptop. Is there a way to download a georeferenced map or imagery before a mission if there is not internet access at the fli
I am using a ArduPilot board with ArduIMU V2+ for pitch roll and yaw sensing. The default code processes roll, pitch and yaw (ground course) and sends it into ArduPilot. ArduPilot thus has RLL, PCH and CRS information reflecting the respective angles
