      Multi-battery / How to operate multi-battery flights - PIX4Dcapture

      You can fly a multi-battery mission with Pix4Dcapture. Pix4Dcapture for iOS and Pix4Dcapture for Android provide different workflows to perform a multi-battery mission.

      If you cannot safely capture your project area with a single drone battery:

      Android (Available only for Grid missions)⤴

      • Tap ABORT. Your drone will start to loiter, and Pix4Dcapture will create a new flight plan that covers the remainder of your project area.

      • Tap GO HOME. Your drone will return to land at its home point.

      After you have changed your drone's battery:

      • Tap START. Your drone will start capturing the remainder of your project area. Note that your drone will start capturing photos at the beginning of the flight line that it was flying in the previous mission when you tapped Abort.
