- End of Route: go to home, repeat route, reverse route, reverse and repeat route.
- Relative or absolute altitude, latitudes and longitude
- Firmware upgradeable

Autopilot: two ways of connecting

1. Receivers with PPM frame output: to get a stabilization connect a Copilot head CPD4 to IKARUS or FY-30A + FY2IR (inertial systems). In this case, ikarus takes control of the aileron, elevator, motor and rudder
2. Normal receivers (PCM or PPM) without PPM frame: need a stabilization system, a CPD4 Copilot, Copilot II or inertial systems Type FY30A

- Cam be used: on normal planes (direction / 1 or 2 aileron, elevator and motor), wings and Vtail planes.
- Management routes, maximum 31 WayPoint, routes can be saved and load at another time.
- If you lose the signal of Radio Control, enters FailSafe and the plane came back home in automatic mode (you must first set the failsafe for that purpose)

Flight Console. This will be the flight display which will show the video from the aircraft. Telemetry information encoded in the fringe left of the image will be decoded by the console, updating on the map the position of the plane, and the various instruments of the plane.
In the map window, you can see the aircraft's position and orientation. A long line will link with the house the plane stored in the console to allow easy orientation for the pilot. Another line (yellow) link the plane to the next waypoint on the route.

Compatible With AeroSimRC Simulator:

Test the OSD IKARUS in a simulator before you fly your plane FPV/UAV. Check the various screens of flight, the autopilot and the right adjust of yuor Rc Transmitter. Ikarus OSD is the first can be test in a Simulator RC: AerosimRC. More information about the simulator in the manufacturer's Website.
