1. A system for automated flight correction in an electric aircraft, the system comprising:
an input control configured to generate a control datum;
a sensor connected to the electric aircraft, wherein the sensor is configured to detect a status datum; and
a flight controller communicatively connected to the input control and the sensor, wherein the flight controller is configured to:
determine a command datum as a function of the control datum and the status datum, wherein determining the command datum comprises:
comparing the control datum to a limitation set based on the status datum; and
calculating a modified control datum based on a flight plan of the electric aircraft through a remote device.
