1. Make sure your RC receiver is bound with its RC transmitter. Connect the RC trasmitter to the flight controller's RC port.
2. Download [QGroundControl](http://qgroundcontrol.com/), launch it and connect your flight controller to the USB port.
3. Install the PX4 firmware v1.4.4 from [github](https://github.com/PX4/Firmware/releases/tag/v1.4.4). The later releases have a bug that we are working with PX4 team to fix.
See this [initial firmware setup video](https://dev.px4.io/starting-initial-config.html) that shows up to install new firmware.
4. In QGroundControl, configure your Pixhawk for HIL simulation by selecting the HIL Quadrocopter X airframe. After PX4 reboots, check that "HIL Quadrocopter X" is indeed selected. You might also want to use QGroundControl to calibrate your RC and set up Flight Mode switch among other things (see below) so everything is green.

See [Walkthrough Demo Video](https://youtu.be/HNWdYrtw3f0) and [Unreal AirSim Setup Video](https://youtu.be/1oY8Qu5maQQ) that shows you all the setup steps in this document.
