Swift GCS Overview
Lynx VTOL is an autonomous unmanned aircraft (drone) and capable of performing a mission from takeoff to landing without any
intervention. It is highly advised that you still monitor the aircraft during the entire flight. The GCS receives live updates regarding the
aircraft through the telemetry radio. You may change flight modes or intervene with the mission while flying. Uploading a new
mission(s) or modifying an existing mission in flight is also possible.
The GCS is comprised of the following distinct sections.
