Field notes
Pilots select a drone, and the page says SkyCheck checks each forecast hour against that model’s wind, temperature, and GPS limits, labeling conditions as within, near, or outside limits. Its listed tools divide between free features such as lightning and TFR alerts, radar, and airport-weather decoding, and Pro features including airspace and LAANC details, seven-day flying windows, widgets, Siri, and a flight log; the page describes alerts continuing while the app is closed.
