1. Could anyone please shed light on why the drone with serial number #5866, a Tethered Quadcopter UAV (Generic-0), is unable to take off and perform maneuvers?

2. I've noticed that most commercial drones don't have a flight duration of more than 40 minutes. How can I increase their battery life to around 1.5 hours?

I can't answer #1

But you cannot modify the DB value for #2 but you can request a DB update in the DB GitHub.

How should it work, only changing altitude?

A home base that should be specific ground units?

And if this ground unit moves, then also the drone?

Thank you, I appreciate your help.

I just want to get the drone flying, but I can only find the drone in the database, not the ground control station. I suspect this might be a bug.

I think right now there is no ground control defined.

The Shahed 136 drone is a weapon of a SSM battery.

Perhaps a tethered drone should be a sensor of a ground or facility unit.

Have you tried adding to the uav to and airbase, ship, or uav launch truck? Seems to work alright for me.
