It will be used for that too yes, also any camera is good enough for mission planning the we use the Mars orbiter as well as probably photos dating back to Viking still for mission planning since any photo is better than no photo.

But the question is would it be worth the risk and would multiple flights produce that much more coverage given just how little distance ingenuity can actually leapfrog in a given flight.

It’s main goal was a test bed for potential rotary aircraft on Mars as well as a test bed of the rapid development program that enabled NASA and JPL to build it relatively for so little money and so fast.

It did its job I don’t really know if there’s that much more value from keeping Percy in range to do more flights since ingenuity can only be controlled through Percy.
