To help users conduct safe and reliable Drone-Dock operations while maintaining situational awareness and ease of use, FlytBase is pleased to launch an updated Control Panel with a refreshed user interface. In addition to this, a new feature, Go To Safe Altitude (GTSA), is also being introduced. These improvements are designed to enhance the user experience by offering intuitive operational controls and the latest safety features, making it easier to manage flight operations while ensuring safety and compliance with regulatory standards.

Explore the details below to see how these features and updates can improve your experience:

  1. Update Control Panel The updated Control Panel has been divided into four sections:

    • Launch Panel: Start/Resume Missions or initiate a Go-To Location flight as per operational requirements. Information regarding the Mission progress is also displayed here.

    • Visualization Panel: The Operational and System states are displayed here, keeping users informed about tasks being executed and Device status.

    • Safety Panel: This panel contains buttons to initiate critical actions such as Return to Docking Station (RTDS), Pause Flight (STOP), and Go-To Safe Altitude (GTSA).

    • Manual Controls: This section allows users to lock/unlock manual controls with a single click and select their preferred input method (keyboard, joystick, or gamepad). The on-screen controls have also been updated.

  2. Go To Safe Altitude (GTSA) The Go To Safe Altitude (GTSA) feature ensures that in case of nearby air traffic, the drone can be commanded to stop current operations and descend to a preset safe altitude, where it will hover until further instructions are given. This feature not only improves operational safety but also ensures compliance with airspace regulations in areas where this functionality is required.
