- may increase as you fly toward the return location, decreasing the time to return
|
Yellow

Yellow indicates how much battery is required to safely return
-
- increases as you fly away from the return location, increasing the time to return
- decreases as you fly toward the return location, decreasing the time to return
- increase or decrease with the time to safely return

The white tick mark hits the yellow battery region when the user receives the already-implemented return prompt when the drone has hit its maximum limit to safely return.
