The series is a four-axis unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). It is designed for agriculture and forest areas. Drones are 

mainly divided into Two modes: automatic and manual flight mode. 

The product consists of flight platforms, spray systems, remote controls and ground control stations (GCS). 

 

Flight platform: It consists of navigation system, flight control system and power system. 

 

Spray system: Spray control system, pump, pipeline, medicine box, nozzle and other components. 

 

Remote control: It consists of a remote controller and a digital radio station. 

 

GCS: Composed of a Android smart phone and APP software.

Features 

Integrated Design 

 

The propeller adopts a folded structure. No need to install a propeller before takeoff. 

 

The remote control integrates a mobile phone, a digital radio station, which is easy to operate. 

 

The pesticide tank is fixed on the body and is not disassembled. 

 

Accurately Positioning 

 

GPS accuracy: 1.5m 

 

Terrain Following Function 

 

Millimeter-wave radar 

 

Wireless Transmission 

  The  aircraft  has  several  antennas.  They  are  used  for:  remote  control  receiver,  communication  with  ground 

station and GPS antenna, RTK spiral antenna (only RTK version includes this component). 

 

Low Battery Level Protection   

 

When the low battery level  triggers the aircraft  to return to home, it can trigger low battery level protection 

such as alarm, return to home and landing.   

 

Flight Log   

The ground station automatically records the flight record logs.   

 

Intelligent Battery 

 

Anti-shock and wear-resistant housing to extend battery life. 

 

LED automatic power display. 

 

Charging  smart  alarm  to  prevent  overvoltage,  overcurrent,  and  high  temperature  damage  to  the  battery  and 

eliminate potential safety hazards. 

 

Low-voltage smart alarm (buzzer). 

 

When the battery is not used for a long time, it will automatically discharge to the storage voltage, extending 

the battery life. 

 

Logging function. 

 

Automatic  shutdown  function.If  it  is  not  used  for  more  than  3  minutes,  the  battery  will  automatically  shut 

down to save power.
