22 Chapter 2 Flight Safety
The flight control system of the Autel Alpha aircraft is pre-configured with the geofencing system.
Before each flight, make sure that the remote controller can connect to the Internet to
automatically update airspace restriction information and synchronously upload it to the aircraft.
During the flight, relevant airspace restriction information will be synchronously displayed in the
Autel Enterprise App to ensure the safe and legal flight of the aircraft.
Due to information lag, the airspace restriction information provided by the geofencing
system may not always be completely consistent with the latest local laws and regulations.
All information is subject to local laws and regulations.
For temporary airspace restrictions, Autel Robotics can obtain the relevant regulatory
announcements in a timely manner and synchronously upload the relevant airspace
restriction information to the geofencing system. When you take flight actions in relevant
zones, be sure to synchronize and update flight airspace restriction information.
When GNSS signal is poor, Autel Enterprise App will prompt “GNSS signal is weak, and geo-
awareness may be disabled”. At this time, the geofencing system may not function properly.
Restricted Zones
The geofencing system divides airspace restrictions into four categories: no-fly zones, restricted
altitude zones, caution zones, and unlocked zones. The Autel Enterprise App will provide
different prompts based on the specific zone.
Table 2-2 Flight Restrictions of Restricted Zones
Restricted Zones Flight Restriction Description
No-Fly Zones
(appear in red on the map)
No-fly zones are divided into permanent no-fly zones and
temporary no-fly zones.
Permanent no-fly zones: The zones are pre-configured in
the geofencing system at the factory and are regularly
updated.
Temporary no-
fly zones: The zones are added by Autel
Robotics in the geofencing system backend.
Update method: After the remote controller is connected to
the Internet, it will automatically retrieve update information
related to no-
fly zones and push it to the aircraft. Flight
restrictions: Aircraft cannot take off or fly in no-fly zones. If you
obtain authorization from relevant authorities to fly in a no-fly
zone, contact Autel Robotics to request for unlocking the zone.
