Before

Geographically, Sagi is characterized by its secluded nature, where the Sagi River meets the Atlantic Ocean, creating an intersection of mangroves, sandbanks, and pristine coastline. The terrain is largely composed of shifting dunes and soft sands, which present specific technical flight hazards. The area is highly exposed to strong, constant coastal winds coming directly off the Atlantic, which can lead to rapid battery discharge and unpredictable flight path deviations for lighter drones. The proximity to the river estuary and the lack of urban infrastructure mean there are no formal "safe landing" zones; GPS signal multipath interference can be higher near the water due to signal reflections. Operators must also account for high salt content in the air, which necessitates frequent cleaning of motors and electronic ports to prevent long-term corrosion.
