Low Battery Failsafe Trigger

This section covers the Low Battery Failsafe Trigger settings.

It is recommended to leave these settings unchanged.

The Low Battery Failsafe Trigger defines what the vehicle does when reaching low battery levels.

Default Failsafe Action: Return at critical level, land at emergency level

Default Battery Warning Level: 15%

Default Battery Critical Level: 10%

Default Emergency Level: 3%

The following Failsafe Actions are available:

Failsafe Action

Warning. Warn (notification only) if capacity drops below Battery Failsafe Level. Return Mode. Return mode and warn if capacity drops below Battery Failsafe Level. Land Mode. Land mode and warn if capacity drops below Battery Failsafe Level. Return mode at critically low level, land mode at current position if reaching dangerously low levels. Triggers warning, return mode, and land mode at the respective levels.

Battery Warning Level: The percentage where the vehicle will give a visible and audible warning to the Ground Control Station (GCS).

Battery Critical Level: The level at which the vehicle is expected to have already returned to the landing site after the critical battery level action has been triggered.

Emergency Level: The level at which the vehicle initiates the emergency battery action (land).

The levels are those estimated to be reached when the vehicle has flown to the landing site. This means that the further the vehicle is from its intended landing location, the sooner these actions will be taken.

It is the operator's responsibility to plan missions in a way that ensures the vehicle has sufficient energy reserves to return to the landing site. The Low Battery Failsafe Actions serve as the final safety measure, and all necessary precautions should be taken by the operator to prevent these actions from being triggered.

If the Default Emergency Level action is triggered, no warranty claims will be accepted for any resulting damages or issues.
