Here the aircraft and its radio link are replaced by the [[Simulation\|'''simulator''']].

			An helpful GUI tool for Gaia [[Simulation#Change_the_environment\|Environment Simulator agent, '''Gaia''']] is available to set your environmental parameters such as:
			* Windspeed,
			* Wind direction
			* GPS failure
			* Don't want to wait to long for full complex flightplan? ... one can even speed up simulation time till a max of 10x

	Because of the modular nature of the Paparazzi software suite, custom agents enhancing functionality are (relatively) easy to create and integrate with existing software.

	The Paparazzi airborne system is highly configurable and can be used to autonomously operate almost any airframe. It is currently in use on airframes ranging from 20cm to 4.3m, and ~~100g~~ to 25kg. In the early days of the project, slow and stable airframes such as the venerable Twinstar and Microjet were favored, but today the system is employed in a wide variety of high performance aircrafts, many with little or no natural stability, and many designed specifically around the Paparazzi system.

	The Paparazzi software suite by default supports traditional fixed-wing and multicopter airframes. The customizability of the software and support for a variety of hardware results in a flexible system capable of controlling many airframe configurations. In addition, hybrid aircraft development is underway and with some effort, additional systems such as traditional helicopters, gliders, marine and ground vehicles could be added (though are currently not supported by default).
