Last time I introduced how to use manual operation mode for spraying. Today, I will continue to take the Z series holistic system as an example to share another work mode—A-B Route Operation Mode, which can form a straight route line between two points.

There are two methods can enter the AB operation mode:

Method 1:

1.Click Agri Assistant >Connect> H12/MK15 >Start

2.Complete the preflight inspection and unlock for takeoff in Attitude Mode.

3.After takeoff, fly to the field where you want to work. After the aircraft stabilizes, click “A” to enter the AB operation mode. Click the A near your side to add point A. Detailed flight parameters will appear on the screen. Set the parameters, then push the stick forward, fly the aircraft to the other side of the field and click “B” to add point B.

4.After adding point AB, click “Start”, then choose “To the left” or “To the right” then the aircraft can automatically identify the planned route.

Method 2：

1.Fly to the field where you want to work. After the aircraft stabilizes, move the left lever on the side close to you. Switch Attitude to Auto mode, and then fly to the A position to add point A , the detailed flight parameters will appear on the screen. After setting the parameters, push the lever forward, fly the aircraft to the other side to add point B.

2.After adding point A and B, fully push the right stick to the left or right, and the aircraft can automatically identify the planned route.

In the next article, I will introduce you the last spraying operation mode. If you have any question, welcome to share your opinion.

*The above steps are for reference only.  Please refer to product use manual when using.

There are three operation modes for agriculture drones during spraying. Manual Operation Mode, A-B Route Operation Mode, and Auto Operation Mode. Today, I will take the Z series holistic system solution as an example to share how to operate the manual operation mode with you.

Step 1. Open Agri Assistant App on remote controller, click Connect> H12/MK15 >Start.

Step 2. Tap “Spray” in the top information bar, set Spray Type to “Spray Auto” , set the Hec Dosage and Disc speed, then switch Spray type to “Spray Manual”, tap screen to confirm. Take off the aircraft in the Attitude Mode, fly to the field, switch to the Manual Operation Mode, then operate the aircraft by sticks, press C and D to spray.

The manual operation mode can apply to various complex fields, but it requires skilled flyer to operate. In the next article, I will introduce a simpler spraying work mode to you guys. If you have any question, welcome to share your opinion.

The release of the DJI Dock, DJI's first drone-in-a-box solution, is indeed a significant breakthrough for the drone industry. It moves us not just one step closer to complete autonomy in drone operations, but also opens up new opportunities for various applications that were not feasible up until now.

‍Over 2300 DJI Docks have been shipped in less than six months. Doesn't this kind of demand easily demonstrate the expanding opportunities in drone autonomy?

‍

Before we get started, a quick heads up.

‍

We’ve designed this blog to serve as a useful resource for enterprises and drone teams looking to start or enhance their current drone programs. We will delve into the features, applications, and best practices of using the DJI Dock.
‍

Also, we look at factors you should consider before buying the DJI Dock so that you can maximize your operations.
‍

^{Let’s start with the basics - Key features of the DJI Dock}

Drone docking stations have this superpower - they can function unsupervised outdoors for extended periods of time while refueling the drone’s batteries autonomously with minimal downtime - just like how an oasis works! :D 

‍

Let’s have a look at what a drone dock, particularly the DJI Dock can bring in:

‍

• Autonomous drone operations: DJI Dock enables drone operations autonomously, significantly reducing human intervention and allowing for more efficient use of resources. Flight missions and routes can be scheduled in advance ensuring that drones are deployed at the right time and place for maximum efficiency.

‍

• Smart charging and quick turnaround: DJI Dock features fast charging capabilities and battery cooling system, ensuring that drones are charged quickly and ready for their next mission. It can charge from 10% to 90% in approximately 25 minutes.

Smart charging with DJI Dock

‍

• ‍Automatic maintenance checks: The DJI Dock, which weighs a reasonable 90kg, is extremely simple to set up, requiring basic components such as a power source and an internet connection and a few minutes to configure. The system also performs automatic inspections to detect potential faults and ensure that drones are in optimal flight circumstances.

‍

• Wide coverage with real-time monitoring: The M30 Dock version drone has an operational radius of 7 kilometers and a flight time of 40 minutes per mission while allowing the docking station to monitor drone operations in real time.

‍

^{Now let’s look at site requirements - What to consider before deploying the DJI Dock}

To make the most of the DJI Dock, it is important to consider certain site requirements and follow best practices. We've highlighted some preparations that one should make prior to deployment to ensure the dock’s optimal performance:

‍

DJI Dock Setup

‍

• Power Availability - One of the most important factors to keep in mind is the availability of uninterrupted power supply. A suitable location for consistent power supply with few outages. Power grounding, surge protection, and cable considerations are all beneficial if done ahead of time. The ideal power supply range is a single-phase AC with a power greater than 1.5kW and a voltage between 90 V and 264 V AC.

‍

• Geographical Features -The site's terrain and topography also play a crucial role in the deployment of the dock. It is done to ensure that the dock is protected against any harm including those like floods. A flat, wide region with a clear line of sight to the sky and an elevation of 4000 meters or less is ideal to minimize all types of impediments. Another consideration is that the location is not prone to water buildup or illumination. To increase safety, a clear backup landing spot 5 to 500 meters away at the same height as the DJI dock is recommended.

‍

• Zero Signal Interference - At all costs, any single source of signal occlusion or interference on the site must be avoided. There must be no visible signal shield within a 25-degree ground altitude angle. If any environmental measures or satellite data collecting is required, the M30 series can be utilized.

‍

• Security and Civil Work - Last but not least, some civil work will be required to correctly mount or position the DJI dock at the site. These may involve, for example, placing the dock on a steel base to prevent damage due to flooding. Grounding is necessary to secure the system as well as the user. Physical and digital security measures, such as firewalls, should be included in terms of security.

‍

^{Let’s also explore industrial inspection applications & case studies}

The repeat inspection capabilities provided by drone-in-a-box systems have undoubtedly brought significant improvements to the efficiency, safety, and scalability of operations and maintenance processes for assets.

‍

Case Study: Occidental Petroleum

‍Occidental Petroleum, known as Oxy, one of the largest oil and gas producers in the United States, was quick to recognize the potential of autonomous drone operations and the use of AI for monitoring assets.

‍

In an article by BIC magazine titled "Fully autonomous drones: The next step for oil and gas," published back in 2020, it highlights the substantial impact drones have made on the industry. Waller and his team at Oxy explain how the adoption of drones has significantly reduced task completion time.

What used to take them two to two-and-a-half hours can now be accomplished in just 30-45 minutes. This improvement not only enhanced efficiency but also contributed to environmental benefits by minimizing emissions released during the process.

‍

Oxy intended to focus on integrating drone autonomy with processes that detect anomalies and automate tasks to further optimize return on investment (ROI). And they've been doing just that with DJI Dock.

The use of DJI Dock has not only increased inspection efficiency, but has also allowed Oxy to address potential issues ahead of time, preventing them from escalating into major issues. Furthermore, the dock allows for on-demand inspections in critical situations, allowing for quick access to critical information.

‍

Case Study: BNSF Railways

BNSF, one of North America's largest freight railroad networks, has been utilizing drone technology since 2015 to address disruptions to rail traffic. Initially deployed during heavy rains near Valley View, Texas, drones proved invaluable in assessing track conditions. 

‍

Over time, BNSF has continued to enhance their drone capabilities. Recently they have been leveraging the latest drone-in-a-box technology particularly, the DJI Dock to enable rapid response and repeated visual data collection missions.

By utilizing the dock, BNSF can swiftly respond to incidents such as train derailments or spills, allowing for quick assessment and appropriate action. For instance, in scenarios like a rock slide, the dock enables faster information gathering, helping BNSF clear tracks or allocate resources more efficiently, ultimately saving critical time.

‍

Case Study - Jilin National Grid

Power grid inspections are critical for maintaining the reliable delivery of electricity to consumers. It is even more crucial in regions subjected to extreme temperatures, where the grid's functionality can be challenged by extreme harsh weather. Conventionally, these inspections involve technicians manually surveying the grid, a process that is fraught with risk and physical danger in such severe environments.

‍

An illustrative case of this is observed during winter in northeastern China at the Jilin National Grid. This region experiences extraordinarily harsh winters, with temperatures plummeting to as low as -20 degrees Celsius.

The crew responsible for inspections under these extreme conditions was continually at risk. Frostbite and snow blindness were real and serious threats, significantly jeopardizing not only their safety but also their capacity to carry out inspections effectively.

‍

Power grid inspections with DJI Dock

‍

Faced with these challenges, the company decided to leverage technology to conduct inspections in conditions that were too perilous for human involvement. They chose the DJI Dock, a solution well-suited for remote operations in challenging environments.

‍

Post-deployment, the DJI Dock proved instrumental in performing operations and maintenance checks of substations and connecting lines, all controlled from a center situated 60 kilometers away from the inspection site. This meant that the personnel could conduct detailed and rigorous inspections from the safety and warmth of the control center, negating the need to brave the harsh conditions.

‍
