Autel DRAGONFISH Series, Quick Start Manual

Getting to know the portable ground station

The Dragonfish is equipped with a 9.7-inch TFT-LCD touch screen (2048*1536). It offers a brightness of 1000 
cd/m2, making it almost twice as bright as typical mobile devices. The screen can display images clearly even 
in direct sunlight, and a built-in 256G memory makes it convenient for storing all your critical data. With an 
image transmission range of 30km

[1]

 and a battery life of 4.5 hours, the ground station guarantees optimal 

performance and reliability.

Getting to know the base station

The Dragonfish GNSS base station is a high-precision satellite signal receiver that supports GPS, Beidou, 
Galileo and GLONASS navigation systems. It can be used across a variety of applications and environments. 
The Dragonfish GNSS base station and the integrated, Dual RTK modules equip the aircraft with additional 
redundancy and positioning accuracy to provide precise, centimeter accurate data. It also enables the 
Dragonfish to withstand signal interference in strong magnetic environments such as power lines and near 
buildings.
