Five satellites are insufficient for P-GPS. The threshold is defined by both the number of satellites locked and the DOP, but it generally requires at least eight locked signals in order to switch to P-GPS.

It's possible with six satellites, although I've never seen it myself or in a posted log file. DOP is "dilution of precision", which is a theoretical measure of positional accuracy based purely on the GNSS constellation geometry.

6 satellites to me would be a bit frightening. If you dont mind me asking: why are you flying from inside a van?
