Drone exam · Operational procedures

A building survey requires six short sorties. The pilot plans to keep using each battery until the aircraft issues a low battery warning. What procedure would be better?

Answer

Define a planned landing or battery change threshold that preserves the required reserve for each sortie, then track batteries so partially used packs are not mistaken for fully prepared ones.

Explanation

Waiting for an alert makes the aircraft decide when the margin is nearly gone. A planned threshold keeps the pilot ahead of the warning and reduces battery mix ups during repetitive work.
