Can we get by with only 3 or 4 anchors?

Hello!
My lab is assessing a small investment in programmable quadcopters. Our lead project in this area is related to landing, so we are looking into the flow deck to accomplish the sensory tasks. It would, however be interesting to have LPS capability.
The Loco Positioning System seems like a great choice, but this is still a shy investment for now. Could we use only 3 or 4 anchors to get the job done?
One thing to keep in mind is that we'd probably be ok with a 30-ish cm accuracy in this case. If the system works (without modifications) with less than 6 anchors, do you have any performance data in such conditions?
I appreciate your input and hope to hear from you soon!
Best regards,
Ricardo.
