Loading Offline Map data onto Vision GCS

By default, Vision arrives preloaded with a low-resolution world base map. Before flying we recommended that operators download and install map tiles for the area(s) the operator is expected to fly. Adding new maps requires adding an internet connection to Vision before maps can be downloaded. Follow the directions below to add a WiFi network to Vision before downloading maps. Illustrated instructions can be found in the associated "Downloading Offline Maps" PDF linked at the bottom of this page.
