long range drone ground control station

Ground Control Station for Drone

 

It's a drone ground control station for long range video transmission and controlling.

The system is integrated inside a Pelican suitcase for shockproof, waterproof and convenient carrying.

It's the COFDM modulation for video transmission, with stable, moving and non-line-of-sight receiving features.

Two joysticks integrated, one for camera controlling, another for flight controlling.

What else can be improved for ultra long range transmission, like 100km?

The application of smart agricultural drones for spraying and spreading has boosted farming efficiency,which vividly shows that modern agricultural technology is revolutionizing the way of agricultural protection in Colombia.

Compared to traditional pest control methods, drone spraying significantly enhances efficiency and precision. The Z50P agricultural drone, equipped with a large payload tank, can easily spray orange orchards with a high flow rate. The fine atomizing tech enables the fluid to cover each leaf of the trees, achieving precise and even spraying while reducing pesticide waste. Moreover, this application is beneficial to the environment and promotes green and sustainable agriculture.

Besides, the drone plays more crucial roles than that.According to the pilot team in the video, a Z50P can spray over 100 hectares per day. This high efficiency enables an easier way for farming management and even increases incomes by serving other farms.

Hi there,

Agri drone spraying not only reduces the usage of pesticide, but also protects the crops from trampling by big machines.

For example, the vast field farming in Romania usually employs heavy agri machines to carry out land preparation, sowing and harvest.

And the introduction of agri drones drives precision agriculture to a new level. Equipped with advanced aerial spraying technology, it delivers precise, measured applications, protecting the soil and promoting sustainable crop growth.It ensures that the fertilizer is absorbed precisely by leaves and safeguards healthier growth.

Tap the pics and see Z50P working in maize field.

my self-made tracking drone


This video describes shortly the hardware and software aspects of my self-made tracking drone. The major parts are: a holybro frame, a pixhaxk 6c flight controller, a raspberry pi 4, a oak-d camera and 8 sensors (gps, lidar, compass, ...). The tracking relies on a fine-tuned YOLOv8 object detector and a custom python tracking code. The yaw and the pitch of the drone are derived form the height and center of the detected object. A simple obstacle detection derived from the oak-d stereo camera's, prevents the drone of crashing into obstacles closer than 3m.

PX4 has its own unique advantages; it is preferred and liked by the majority of users. The TF series is a highly cost-effective LiDAR launched by Benewake, which is sought after by the majority of drone users. This tutorial introduces the connection method of TF series PixHawk and configuring over the PX4 firmware. The same procedure can be followed for other flight controllers as long as the right physical port is used. This document is based on QGroundControl v4.0.6 and firmware PX4 v1.11.0. If the ground station or firmware is not fully functional, please upgrade。

Hardware Connection

This article uses Pixhawk as an example to illustrate the connection, as shown below:

 12963694253?profile=RESIZE_584x

Please install the TF Series LiDAR on the multi-rotor, vertically downwards, and ensure that there are no obstacles in front of the lens. Then configure the software settings:

  • Under Settings--Parameters--EKF2--EKF2_RNG_AID, select Range aid enabled, as shown below:

 12963694082?profile=RESIZE_710x

 

User-defined settings

  • EKF2_RNG_A_VMAX:The maximum horizontal speed trigger value of multi-rotor using TF series as range finder, it means that TF series LiDAR will become active only when the flight speed is lower than this value. The default value is 1m/s, the minimum value is 0.1m/s, and the maximum value is 2m/s.
  • EKF2_RNG_A_HMAX:The maximum altitude trigger value of TF series based multi-rotor, which means that TF series will become active only when the flying altitude is less than this value. The default value is 5m, the minimum value is 1m, and the maximum value is 10m.
  • Turn on LiDAR options:UnderSetting--Sensors--SENS TFMINI CFG, select TELEM2 (this port can be changed if you are using another serial port), as shown below:

Note:If this option is not available, you need to download the source program from the official website and change the default.cmake file of the corresponding board.

https://dev.px4.io/master/en/

File locationPX4\Firmware\boards\px4\fmu-v2\default.cmake, fmu-v2 is the corresponding flight control board; please refer to the official tutorial link below for details.

Change the content:Need to add distance_sensor/tfmini

 12963696455?profile=RESIZE_710x

 12963696885?profile=RESIZE_710x

 

After completing the above steps, please restart the flight controller and QGroundControl. There is a LiDAR value display on the main interface, as shown below:
