Site & flight plan

Paste anything — a Google Maps link, DMS (48°12'07.4"N, 114°18'11.2"W), decimal, or even a sentence with coordinates in it. BlackBox pulls the location out, or tells you it couldn't.
Launch ⌂ Waypoint VLOS radius Controlled airport 5sm Advisory 1sm
Plot a coordinate, then click the map to drop waypoints. Drag any marker to move it. The dashed ring shows your visual line-of-sight radius (set it in Range & battery). Set each point's altitude below.

Online checks

optional · reaches the internet
Plot a site first, then run any check. These call public aviation/terrain APIs only when you press them.
Not an authorization. Airspace and weather results are planning aids only and may be incomplete or stale. Always confirm current restrictions with official FAA sources (B4UFLY / UAS Facility Maps) and obtain LAANC authorization where required before flight.

Flight readiness

GO / NO-GO
Fuses wind, visibility, density altitude, airspace & daylight into one call. Run the weather/airspace checks and the density calc first for a complete picture.

Calculators

Plot a site and set a date to get sunrise, sunset and civil-twilight windows. FAA civil-twilight ops need anti-collision lighting.

Pre-flight brief

A timestamped summary of your plan, readiness verdict + checks, ready for your ops file. Pulls in whatever you've plotted and run. PDF opens a print-ready, branded brief.

Turn a raw flight log into a flight you can watch — and a report you can send.

Drop in a DJI/CSV, GPX, or KML flight log. BlackBox reconstructs the flight on a map, replays it with synced telemetry, estimates wind, flags anomalies, and exports a branded report — all in your browser.

How export works

BlackBox assembles your clips into an ordered sequence and previews it in the player. For final delivery it exports an edit decision list (every clip's in/out time and order) you can drop into Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut or CapCut, plus your color/speed settings. In-browser re-encoding to a single MP4 is on the roadmap — it's heavy and browser-dependent, so this version keeps the cut lossless and hands the render to your NLE.
