Parameters:
The GPS Hold regulator is of type PID: UserParameter1 =P(proportional), UserParameter2 = I(ntegral),
UserParameter3 = D(ifferential). Standardvalues for P,I and D are 80,16,80.
UserParameter3 = D(ifferential). Standardvalues for P,I and D are 60,8,100.
The I-Part may be set to 0 if a small deviation from hold position is acceptable. The D-Part is important to avoid
oscillating.
Please find out the best values yourself.

The gps module has do provide a 3D-fix. If succesfull, you can hear a longer beep when performing a gyro calibration.
Without a succesfull position fix at calibration the GPS functionality ist completely disabled.
The red led on the FlightCrtl flashes with a 4 Hz rate if the gps module delivers a position fix.
There are two ways to enable the GPS Hold functionality:
Either enable the GPS flag in the setting OR
disable the GPS flag in the setting AND set UserParameter5 to a value > 75 and < 170.
 
Enabling GPS_Hold in fligh:
Enabling GPS_Hold in flight:
GPS Hold is automatically activated if the sticks for roll and nick are in neutral position for about 400ms.
Moving the stick immediately disables the Hold mode. The GPS Hold function doesn not change height, pitch or yaw.
 
 
GPS Coming-Home function
The coming-home function is activated by the same switch as for the height regulator, if the switch is set to maximum.
The height regulator itself is activated at approx. Maximum/2.
There are tow ways to enable the GPS Coming Home functionality:
Either enable the GPS flag in the setting AND set the Height Switch ("ParameterMAxhoehe) to a value > 170 OR
disable the GPS flag in the setting AND set UserParameter5 to a value > 170.
The height regulator itself is activated with a value >= 50.
