- Choose Field-device mission or Relay mission before launch.

Connection quick reference
| Need | Requirement |
|---|
| Relay mission live viewing | Same reachable Wi‑Fi between pilot device and Overwatch |
| Remote live (Live stream (WebRTC)) | Pilot device has internet; pilot starts live from app |
| Cloud sync / upload / reports | Internet on the active device |
| Field work with no internet | Supported; data queues until sync |
Internet and local relay connectivity are different. Relay mission viewing does not require internet, but it does require local Wi‑Fi reachability.
