Simulation Tools

Overview

The Simulation Tools menu in HA Ground Control allows for pre-launch configuration of simulated environments. Key options include:

• Vehicle Selection: Choose between H6 Hybrid and H6 Fully Electric models.
• Environment: Configure starting coordinates, altitude, and toggle the 3D simulator.
• Full Feature Access: The simulator provides access to all Fly View and Plan View features, making it ideal for personnel training and mission planning.

Warning: Simulated missions do not account for real-world variables such as wind speed, GPS interference, or air traffic. They are not direct equivalents to real-world flight operations.

Installation Instructions

To use the simulator, you must enable WSL and Ubuntu on your system:

1. Install WSL: Select "Install WSL" from the simulator menu. Reboot your computer after installation.
2. Download Ubuntu: Get Ubuntu from the Microsoft Store. Ensure the "Windows subsystem for Linux" is enabled in the Windows control panel if you encounter issues.
3. Setup Ubuntu: Open Ubuntu and create a Unix Username and Password when prompted. Note: You may need to convert to WSL version 1 if version 2 is installed automatically.

Starting a Simulation

1. Select your vehicle and set coordinates (or choose a location on the map).
2. Press the START button.
3. Ensure the aircraft is connected. If the CONNECT button does not activate automatically, select it manually.
4. Exit the Simulation Tools menu to enter the Fly View screen and begin the mission.

Simulation Controls

• Speed Adjustment: Use the on-screen feature (to the right of the remote ID indicator) to set speeds at x1, x2, x5, or x10.
• Playback: The simulation can be stopped or sped up using the dedicated on-screen features.

Note: Simulation Tools are currently under development. Please check for the latest releases to access new features and updates.
