Spiri Ground Control Station

Spiri GroundControl (SGC) is an intuitive and powerful ground control station (GCS) for UAVs.

The primary goal of SGC is ease of use for both first time and professional users. It provides full flight control and mission planning for any MAVLink enabled drone, and vehicle setup for both PX4 and ArduPilot powered UAVs. Instructions for using Spiri GroundControl are provided in the User Manual (you may not need them because the UI is very intuitive!)

All the code is open-source, so you can contribute and evolve it as you want. The Developer Guide explains how to build and extend QGC.
