# Setting a home position

Each map has a corresponding home position. This position represents the takeoff location of your UAV, and is the location where the vps will initialize. It is represented by a circle within the map boundary on the map screen.

To set your home position, either drag the circle to a desired location within the map boundary or enter coordinates in the *Home Position* field. Then click the **SAVE** button to set this as the new home position.

Saving the home position automatically restarts the vps service to load in the new starting position.
