# Home Position Setting

Theseus Micro VPS enables operation in GPS-denied environments from takeoff to landing. It allows you to set your home position/launch location from the Theseus GCS app without GPS.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Your launch location needs to be located within your uploaded map area. See [Maps Management](/gcs-software/legacy-software/theseus-gcs-app/feature-list/maps-management.md).
{% endhint %}

## Setting Home Position with WGS84 Coordinates

Navigate to the "Position" tab on the left menu. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and enter a latitude/longitude pair into the respective fields. Click the "Update Home Position" button to set the home position on the device.

To confirm that your home position was set properly, refresh the page and navigate to the top of the "Position" page.

## Setting Home Position with Search and Map Cursor

Alternatively, the "Position" page allows you to search the name of the location you would like to set your home position at and drag your cursor on the map.&#x20;

The home position should be located within the boundary of the map you currently have selected. If the select a point outside the the map boundary, you will be prompted to confirm the selection. If you get this prompt, check back to confirm you have the correct maps selected.
