Any interface to support finding my drone?

What situation did you find your drone in? If the remote controller is properly connected to the aircraft, the SDK can retrieve the aircraft's location information and even make the drone emit sound.

the SDK can retrieve the aircraft's location information and even make the drone emit sound.

What is the interface or document to implement this?

If I'm right, you could use " setESCBeepEnabled" by an object Flight Controller

DJISampleApplication.getAircraftInstance().getFlightController().setESCBeepEnabled(true, djiError -> {
                // If you need to use a callback
            });

For more instructions, you could use this page:

@danilofariadutra You are correct. This interface is used to make the drone emit sound.

The getAircraftLocation can get the location of drone. https://developer.dji.com/api-reference/android-api/Components/FlightController/DJIFlightController_DJIFlightControllerCurrentState.html#djiflightcontroller_djiflightcontrollercurrentstate_aircraftlocation_inline

@dji-lyt @danilofariadutra This feature I want to implement. So, how to get the aircraft location when not connected?

The SDK is unable to retrieve the aircraft's position when not connected to the aircraft. If Pilot 2 can display the aircraft icon without being connected to the aircraft, then Pilot 2 may have cached the location information from the last time it was connected to the aircraft.

@dji-dev I think so, too. Thank you
