Planning a warbird flight in a simulator without GPS markers can pose its challenges in both single and multiplayer missions. The Dead-Reckoning Suite is a freeware software tool that aims at making the learning and flight-planning process for a dead-reckoning flight easier and faster than usual. It is a one-tool solution to set up your flight plan to follow during the mission and gives you the options of doing certain planning steps by hand or at he click of a button.

Check out this How-to video to get you started with the tool. Download the freeware software and get more information, tutorials and example missions from this website: https://warbird-navigator.com/drs/
