<p dir="auto">I would like to ask whether the ModalAI Starling 2 Max is suitable for the following workflow:</p>
<p dir="auto">Software: ArduCopter, Mission Planner<br />
Environment: Mostly empty large buildings with rooms and corridors.</p>
<p dir="auto">The drone takes off and lands at a predefined location (the same point)<br />
The drone fully autonomously executes a flight path planned in Mission Planner<br />
After battery replacement, it is able to fly the same mission again with approximately ±20 cm accuracy<br />
Questions:<br />
How much lighting is required inside the building for accurate navigation, or can it operate in complete darkness?<br />
Is ArduCopter’s Dijkstra-based path planning with predefined inclusion and exclusion zones supported?<br />
Is the drone capable of detecting obstacles in front of it and measuring distance? If so, can ArduCopter’s BendyRuler obstacle avoidance system be used?<br />
What level of navigation accuracy can be expected after 20–30 minutes of flight?</p>
<p dir="auto">Thank You</p>
