You need to replace the two position switch with a three position switch and do minor mods to the electronics such as installing a resistor to the existing connection and the new switch , see the wiki there are details on doing this. Once this is done you can switch to manual, auto1 or auto2 mode as required.
You need to cache this while you have internet connection of the region you are going to fly, dont go to high resolution as sometimes google may ban you for some days. once you have these tiles they will remain in the files until you delete or do a fresh installation and when you reach the flying spot you can use it without a problem. if you are not able to download the tiles even if you have an internet is probably because you are behind a firewall, try with a direct internet connection.

Hi all,
We had flown paparazzi TWOG board successfully with Sparkfun 6 DOF IMU and Ublox GPS on 18th May. That was our first flight with paparazzi, though it was a short flight in autonomous mode we were excited to fly paparazzi on our MAV.
1) I need to tune the autopilot with our airframe, hence i need to engage AUTO1 mode and do the roll and pitch tuning. Any body please tell us how to engage AUTO1 mode in paparazzi. I saw that option in GCS but once the radio is ON iam not able to select the option AUTO1. Do i need to add any module in my configuration file to engage AUTO1. I have a two position switch in my transmitter with which iam able to switch between AUTO2 and Manual. I request users to suggest how to engage AUTO1 or add patch in config. file to engage.
2) Iam not getting the satellite map updated when I go to field. Though my GPS is locked iam not getting the satellite MAP. How to cache the GCS satellite MAP in the LAPTOP memory so that when ever we hit the field we dont need to stay connected to the internet.
