Function

One-click Takeoff	Automatically opens the drawer upon task reception, powers on the drone battery, and after successful self-check, the drone takes off from the hub and flies to an approximate altitude of 6 meters.
Task Reception	Automatically receives inspection tasks dispatched from the control terminal.
Execute/Pause/End Task	The drone follows the planned flight path or executes/pauses/ends the task according to commands.
One-click Return	The drone returns to the home position from any location, automatically opens the drawer, lands on the nest, starts the charging program, and automatically closes the drawer.
One-click Landing	Causes the drone to land immediately at the current location.
Automatic Charging	Automatically returns to the charging station after landing, and automatically powers off the battery after charging is complete.
Photo/Video Recording	Takes photos/records video from the drone's cloud platform.
Query/Control Cloud Platform Angle	Queries/controls the drone's cloud platform angle.
Data Auto-Upload	Uploads the image data captured by the drone to the server.
Real-Time Image Transmission	Allows direct viewing of the drone's real-time image transmission on the control terminal.
Fault Self-Check	Performs self-check on faults and reports to the system.
