An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) 100 for autonomously transporting a payload 118. The UAV 100 comprises a flight control system 122 which is configured to autonomously operate a steering and propulsion system 112 such that the UAV 100 is able to autonomously fly to a predetermined destination. The UAV 100 has a first navigation system 128 and a second navigation system 130, which are arranged to determine a position of the UAV 100 in dependence on different sources of data. The flight control system 122 is configured to determine whether the first navigation system 128 and the second navigation system 130 are providing a correct indication of the position of the UAV 100. The flight control system 122 disregards the position provided by the first navigation system 128 and/or the second navigation system 130 if it is determined that the first navigation system 128 and/or the second navigation system 130 are/is not providing a correct indication of position.
