Abstract
The technology relates to managing power of an aerial vehicle. The system may include an aerial vehicle having a power storage module and one or more components, as well as a computing device communicatively coupled to the aerial vehicle. The computing device may include a processor and a memory storing instructions which, when executed by the processor, may cause the computing device to receive data indicating a state of charge of the power storage module, receive data indicating a rate of power consumption of the at least one component, generate a power command based on at least one of the state of charge of the power storage module or the rate of power consumption of the at least one component, and transmit the power command to the aerial vehicle.
