several locations around the HUD. The numbers in parentheses in the following section
refer to the numbered labels in Figure 12 above.

(ii) GPS SATELLITE STATUS
Tapping this icon (6) displays the number of GPS satellites received by the RPA’s GPS
antennas, the type of GPS lock in effect, the vertical and horizontal dilution of precision,
and the RPA’s course over ground, or direction of travel (this is not the same as the
RPA’s magnetic heading, since the RPA may have its nose pointed in one direction
while moving in another).
