 +
 +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).
 +
 +5. 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.
 +
 +6. 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).
