+====== Mission Protocol (Template) ======
+Pre-Mission Planning
+Mission Objective: Clearly define the purpose of the drone flight (e.g., aerial photography, surveying, inspection).
+Location Analysis:
+Flight Area: Identify the flight location and ensure it is clear of hazards like power lines, trees, and buildings.
+Airspace Restrictions: Check for any restricted airspace (near airports, military zones) using tools like airspace maps or apps (e.g., AirMap, DJI Fly).
+Weather Conditions: Check for weather conditions that may affect the flight, such as wind speed, rain, or visibility.
+No-Fly Zones: Confirm any nearby no-fly zones and avoid them.

+Pre-Flight Checklist
+Flight Path: Plan and review the intended flight path, altitude, and waypoints if necessary.
+Emergency Procedures: Establish clear emergency procedures, including return-to-home (RTH) settings, loss of signal protocols, and manual control overrides.
+Team Coordination: If a team is involved, ensure all members (e.g., spotters, visual observers) are briefed on their roles.
+Risk Assessment: Identify potential hazards and implement mitigations (e.g., stay clear of obstacles, maintain visual line of sight).
+. Flight Execution
+Pre-Flight Check: Conduct a final systems check, including compass calibration, GPS lock, and battery status.
+Take-Off: Perform a controlled take-off and hover at a low altitude to ensure stability before proceeding.
+Monitor the Flight: Keep an eye on telemetry data (battery life, altitude, etc.) throughout the mission.
+Maintain Visual Line of Sight (VLOS): Ensure the drone remains within VLOS unless operating under specific beyond-line-of-sight conditions.
+. Post-Flight Procedure
+Safe Landing: Ensure a safe and controlled landing.
+Data Collection: Retrieve and back up any data collected during the flight (photos, videos, or sensor data).
+Equipment Inspection: After landing, inspect the drone for any damage and check the battery status.
+Flight Log: Record details of the flight (location, duration, any issues encountered).
