Drone flight planning · Available now

Flyby

Know before you launch. One focused view of the weather, light, airspace, and flight window that matter now.

The forecast, translated into a decision.

Flyby organizes the scattered parts of preflight planning around a simpler question: is this a good time and place to fly?

01 · Conditions

The Fly Score

Wind, gusts, rain, visibility, cloud cover, daylight, and geomagnetic conditions resolve into one score you can understand at a glance.

  • Plain-language factors
  • Personal aircraft limits
  • Data freshness and confidence

02 · Personalization

A score shaped around you

Start with a suggested profile, then tune the limits that reflect your aircraft and experience. Flyby shows exactly which conditions raise or lower the score.

  • Suggested pilot profiles
  • Personal wind and gust limits
  • Factor-by-factor explanations

03 · Planning

A better window

Scan the next 24 hours, two days, or three days. Flyby highlights good windows instead of making you decode a wall of forecast data.

  • Best-window highlighting
  • Planned-flight alerts
  • Saved launch spots
Flyby hourly charts showing how the Fly Score, wind, and rain change through the day.

04 · Airspace

Context on the map

Saved spots, condition previews, FAA UAS Facility Map overlays, and LAANC context share one map without replacing official authorization.

  • Facility-map ceilings
  • LAANC provider context
  • Multiple map styles

Every flight, remembered

Log a flight manually or import a GPX track to preserve its route, duration, distance, altitude, aircraft, and launch point—all privately on your device.

  • GPX route import
  • Private route maps
  • Flight history and totals
Flyby screens for importing a flight and reviewing its route and flight details.
