Fix the status of finished charges without a firmware rollback

You’re the product manager. Your team is in the room. Printed Oct 13, 2026.

The charge signal says wait after the aircraft is ready to fly.

A fast status correction protects scheduled missions while a rollback protects recently added dock diagnostics.

Who you’d be doing this for

“My control room keeps asking why a charged aircraft is still sitting there when the route is due.”

Elsa Jarvinen · Utility Operations Manager

Runs scheduled substation inspection missions from several X10 Dock sites.

What is at stake

Eighteen percent of completed charge cycles stay pending for over 20 minutes. You must weigh a focused status correction against losing newly released dock diagnostics in a rollback.

Why it isn’t already fixed

Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.

  • mission readiness vs diagnostic coverage
  • narrow change vs firmware rollback
  • scheduled patrols vs release certainty

Why Skydio

X10 Dock fleets depend on reliable unattended readiness between scheduled inspection and patrol missions.
