If the Skydio X10D Controller reaches critical temperatures and overheats in flight, it will shut
down and lose connection to the drone, triggering the X10D Lost Connection behavior.
To mitigate overheating and reduce the risk of lost connection during flight, the controller will
issue two alerts and provide guidance to the operator.
