Safe Piloting During Automated Missions
General Guidelines
Always check your failsafes and RTL altitude in the IGC Safety Tab.
Be aware of your altitude and surroundings, double check your mission plan when you arrive at the mission location and set your altitudes accordingly.
Confirm your mission time and give yourself enough time to RTL and land without stressing the batteries.
