Missions always start from the pilot app. Mission Overwatch cannot start missions.

​
Steps (both modes)

  1. Open the pilot app on the Android tablet or phone.
  2. Tap Choose Mission Mode.
  3. Enter a mission name if useful.
  4. Select a scenario category and template, or No scenario template.
  5. Tap Field-device mission or Relay mission.
  6. Complete the license check if prompted.
  7. Fly the mission from the pilot view. Use Takeoff, Land, quick events, and Stop Mission when finished.

​
Field-device mission

  • Works on cellular or Wi‑Fi
  • No Live Overwatch Screen during the live mission
  • Review, reporting, and export happen in Mission Overwatch after sync
Optional: start Live stream (WebRTC) from the pilot app so remote Overwatch users can watch over the internet.

​
Relay mission

  • Requires Wi‑Fi on the pilot device
  • Starts the LAN relay for Mission Overwatch
  • After the mission syncs to Mission Dashboard, open the mission and use Live Overwatch Screen:
    1. Leave Tablet/phone IP (LAN) blank and click Connect to scan, or enter the IPv4 shown on the pilot device.
    2. Add Relay token if the relay uses one.
    3. Trust the self-signed relay certificate if the browser prompts.
Mission Overwatch uses wss:// on port 8789 automatically when you enter a LAN IP.

​
After start

  • The mission appears in Mission Dashboard after cloud sync.
  • Footage and events may upload during or after the mission depending on connectivity.
  • Tap Stop Mission in the pilot app (or Close Mission in Mission Overwatch) when field work is done.
