Core System Functions

Track-Return Home

When the drone encounters severe GNSS signal interference, the system automatically takes over flight control. Utilizing real-time stored flight trajectory and attitude records combined with compass-based inertial navigation, it ensures the drone safely exits the interference area, plans optimal flight paths, and models the boundaries of the interference area.
