A permit or company procedure limits operations to a defined radius from the remote pilot. The crew moves the control position midway through the job. What must be reassessed?

Answer

Recalculate the applicable radius from the new control position and make sure every planned point remains inside the authorised or procedural limit.

Explanation

A radius is tied to its reference point. Moving the reference changes the geometry even when the mission area stays the same.
