There are three ways to interrupt a mission in PIX4Dscan.

Pilot the drone with the controller

If an unexpected behavior happens during the mission, take over control of the drone by using the controller at any time. It will pause the mission and the drone will hover when:

• (DJI drones) Changing flight modes. Switch the controller button from autopilot to manual mode.
• (Parrot drones) Moving the controller's joysticks.

The mission can be resumed afterward by clicking on the Play button. More information in Pause, resume or cancel the mission article.

Fail-safe procedures

Fail-safe procedures can be triggered to make the drone return to the home point and land by:

• Tapping the Return-to-home button on the PIX4Dscan application.
• Tapping the return-to-home (RTH) button on the controller. The RTH button can be different for different drones. Check the drone manufacturer documentation to know where it is placed on a particular drone.

The mission can be resumed afterward by clicking on the Play button. More information in Pause, resume or cancel the mission article.
