Automatic Flight Verification and Optional Flight Approval

Every scheduled flight is checked against its flight log. A log from the dock, the controller, or an upload marks the flight flown with the log as proof, and only the flights that still need a person are flagged for review. Manager approval is now an optional workspace setting, off by default.

Flights Verified by Their Logs

  • A flight log from a DJI dock (FlightHub 2 sync), the DroneBundle Android app on a DJI controller, or a web upload finds its job and the scheduled flight whose time window covers the takeoff
  • That flight is marked Flown, with a mark showing what backs it: verified by dock, verified by controller, or verified by upload
  • A flight the pilot already marked complete keeps the log as proof
  • A flight marked not flown that a log matches is flagged instead of trusted

One Flights List

  • Flight Reports opens on a Flights list with every scheduled flight, its pilot, its outcome, and its report status
  • Filter by period, project, pilot, outcome, and report status
  • Open a flight to record or correct its outcome and the pilot's answers

Needs Review

  • Missing outcome: the flight's time has passed, no log matched, and nothing was recorded
  • Missing answers: the flight was flown, but a required report question is still empty
  • Log says flown: a flight marked not flown has a matching flight log
  • The Review link on Flight Summary opens the same list for the period you picked

Optional Manager Approval

  • Require manager approval is a switch in Flight Reports, Report settings, and it is off by default
  • With it off, a verified or recorded flight counts as flown right away: in Flight Summary, on the Overview, in project and team flight counts, and in pilot flight history
  • With it on, flown flights need a manager's sign-off before they count toward billing, and an Approved tab appears
  • It applies to flights scheduled after it is turned on. Turning it off releases anything still pending, and past approvals stay in the history
  • Owners and project managers can change it

Where It Lives

  • Flight Reports is on the Professional, Business, and Enterprise plans and every free trial, for owners, project managers, and ops leads
  • DJI FlightHub 2 sync is available on every plan, and the Android app for DJI controllers is free
