GPS forecast? There are always far more than 6 GPS and Glonass satellites visible at any given time. Barriers, such as structures, terrain and even weather (clouds, precipitation) can cause the signal from a certain azimuth to be unusable. Generally, if you have 6 or more locked before takeoff, you should have at least that while flying, unless you fly into a situation that is worse for it, such as near buildings, into a tunnel, etc. The expected response from the P2VP is to switch to ATTI, which will simply not hold a position, laterally. It will hold altitude, attitude and heading. If, in ATTI or after GPS loss, it does not do these things, then there is something wrong.
For solar weather, you can check many sites, including this http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/ if you feel it makes a difference. |
