When you command Solo to land, it will land at the current location,
wherever it is. Always make sure there is a clear path to a safe landing
point directly below Solo before landing.
Never approach Solo while the propellers are spinning. After an
auto-landing or return-to-home, always wait until the propellers stop
before approaching or touching Solo.
