MegaDock can keep three F10s airborne while two remain in the dock

Skydio says MegaDock can house five F10s and support multi-aircraft operations, with aircraft rotating through missions and charging.

The operational idea is continuous coverage rather than maximizing one aircraft's endurance. That changes fleet sizing from a single-aircraft calculation to an availability and turnaround problem.

Model the duty cycle using actual mission distance, reserve requirements and recharge time. Skydio specifies about 45 minutes for a 10-to-90% charge, but real utilization will depend on temperature and mission profile.
