In many businesses, drones become a necessary tool. The short flight times of drones, however, continue to jeopardize their great performance and productivity. This is why many operators opt to tethered drone solutions for situations where flight endurance is important but the operational area is small. One such option created exclusively for the DJI M30 drone series is the new V-Line Pro kit.
The M30 can be permanently tethered and flown utilizing a ground power station thanks to the technology company Volarious, which has its headquarters in Singapore.
Users don’t need to be concerned about cutting the reel or feeling excessive tension when flying their DJI drone at an ascending speed of 5 m/s. Users of the device may soar up to 100 meters in the air because to the cable’s lightweight aviation-grade construction.
Such a system may be used for asset protection, security and surveillance for military personnel, monitoring and inspection for data analytics, and other purposes.
Volarious is keen to point out, however, that the tether kit has a number of additions that make it more functional than other available options. These include a 12,000-lumen searchlight and a 20,000 lumen flood light, allowing the DJI M30 to now be utilised in the dark with the V-Line Pro to provide essential lighting. In the video below, you can see these accessories in use.
According to the inventor of Volarious, Weiliang Zhang, public safety authorities do not need to wait for specialised trucks equipped with mast lighting to come at the area because the drone tether kit is portable. This is Weiliang:
The DJI M30 series with Payload SDK gave us the chance to add lights to the tether systems in a way that is fully integrated, which was something that public safety departments had been requesting us to accomplish.
A companion software that is included with the DJI tether drone kit enables users to keep an eye on a number of system settings while flying the drone. Additionally accessible are features like auto takeoff and precise landing. In the meanwhile, vehicle following mode, which enables the M30 to automatically track the vehicle even when the camera is monitoring the horizon for threats, is advantageous to border patrol agencies.
