Page 196 Chapter 4 Flight Operations 196 During flight, to prevent unnecessary risks due to insufficient smart battery power, the aircraft will intelligently assess whether the current battery level is sufficient based on its current position. If the "Current Aircraft Battery Level - Expected Remaining Landing Battery Level" is only sufficient to complete the return journey, the aircraft will automatically trigger automatic return, and the Autel Voyager Application will display a pop-up alert, prompting the user to initiate low battery automatic return.
Page 197 Chapter 4 Flight Operations 197 When the aircraft and the ground control station (RC or base station) have been  disconnected for over 15 seconds, the aircraft will trigger auto return under any one of the following situations: 1. If the aircraft is conducting a waypoint mission, and “Go Home” action is set as the response to a loss of connection, 2.
Page 198 Chapter 4 Flight Operations 198  Home Point: The automatic return setting specifies the home point (landing point) for the aircraft.  Multirotor Mode Return Logic The multi-rotor mode return logic is associated with the return areas as follows: Return Area 1 Definition: Within a distance of 300 meters from the Home point and at an altitude lower than the sum of the landing mode switching height (relative to the landing point) and 50 meters.
Page 199 Chapter 4 Flight Operations 199  If the flight altitude is higher than the switching altitude (relative to the landing point), it maintains the current altitude while turning towards the Home point, then accelerates and switches to fixed-wing mode. The aircraft uses the Home point as a reference and flies directly toward it.
