Why AutoPylot
The drone industry’s first fully integrated mission planning solution.
Combining essential mission planning elements such as airspace, weather, and mission management into one easy-to-use application, AutoPylot helps drone pilots more efficiently and safely prepare for flights.
Features
Fully integrated mission planning solution.
Flight Status Indicator
Quickly find your desired flight location by typing it in or pinpointing it, then long pressing on the map. AutoPylot’s mission status indicators instantly tell pilots whether it is safe to fly, if they need LAANC approval, or if the airspace is restricted.

Flight Checklist
AutoPylot’s flight checklist organizes all airspace advisories that apply to the mission location. To ensure flight safety, the app lets pilots know which specific rules to look out for if they are good to fly, alerts them if they need approval, and tells them why the area may be restricted.

Get LAANC
AutoPylot is a certified uncrewed service supplier of low-altitude authorizations and notification capability (LAANC). The app will indicate when planned flight areas are in LAANC-enabled airspace, allowing pilots to request authorization to fly in it.


Track And Fly
AutoPylot makes it easy for pilots to track flights with their mission list. Pilots can see all of their upcoming, completed, and canceled flights in one easy-to-find place. If any advisories change, preventing a safe flight, our app instantly alerts the pilot.

Still curious about AutoPylot and LAANC? See FAQs below.
The Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability, or LAANC, is a collaboration between the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and private industry, such as AutoPylot, to safely integrate small drones into the national airspace. LAANC provides drone pilots with access to controlled airspace at or below 400 feet through automated applications created by companies approved to LAANC services.
AutoPylot provides near real-time airspace authorizations to commercial pilots (Part-107) and recreational flyers. When requesting airspace access, pilots must enter their Remote Pilot Certificate number or TRUST Certificate Authentication Token number. This will be displayed in the menu header.
DJI Fly Zones are not official airspace data and are not the same as LAANC. The DJI system is not integrated with the FAA and is different than official national airspace maps. If you request to unlock a zone with DJI, this does not mean you are authorized to fly in that area, and you must request authorization through an FAA-approved supplier of LAANC or the FAA DroneZone. The FAA is the authoritative source on all airspace data.
Yes! Once a pilot creates a mission, AutoPylot will provide flight-specific weather conditions including flight variables, hourly forecasts, 10-day forecasts and visual wind/precipitation maps. Pilots can find all of this weather information in their mission details.
AutoPylot uses three primary colors to indicate a planned flight area’s operational status. A green radius and flight checklist indicate the mission is in Class G airspace, and the pilot does not need an airspace authorization to fly. A red radius, map area, and flight checklist indicate the proposed flight location overlaps a do not fly boundary. An orange radius and flight checklist indicate the proposed flight area is in LAANC-enabled airspace, and the pilot can request access at that location by continuing the mission creation process.
AutoPylot is integrated with National Park Service (NPS) data sources and advises flights in National Parks, Wilderness Areas and Wildlife Refuges.
