Command The Future

Dragon Fish Series
Dragonfish Series

Smart. Simple. Efficient.

The Dragonfish's unique tilt-rotor design simplifies operation while maximizing performance and efficiency. With no complicated moving parts, the Dragonfish is modular, waterproof, smart, and reliable. The Dragonfish is mission ready right out of the box and includes powerful AI tracking capabilities and a multitude of modular payload options. An endurance of up to 158 minutes (including payload) further augments the Dragonfish's robust mission capabilities and pushes it significantly ahead of the competition.

RTK Accuracy

Map with confidence with the Dragonfish’s two RTK (Real-Time Kinetic) modules, which enable the aircraft to provide centimeter-accurate location data when paired with a GNSS base station. The dual units back up each other’s data for additional peace of mind, while also improving image metadata quality and increasing flight precision and safety.

Interchangeable Payload System

*Please refer to the specifications page for specific payloads adaptability.

Tackle any operation with a variety of payload options that can be toolessly swapped to suit mission needs. Dragonfish payloads are designed to be interchangeable between aircraft classes to maximize the value and enhance the mission capability of the system.

One Device. Any Mission.

Autel Voyager

Incredibly powerful yet simple to use, Autel Voyager is the one-stop solution for every mission. Designed specifically for the Dragonfish, the software provides advanced mission planning, intelligent tracking, flight history tracking, and other autonomous features.

• Mission Planning: Waypoint missions, polygon missions, and rectangular missions can be planned offsite prior to mission and started with a single click to begin autonomous flight. The pilot can regain control at any time during the mission for emergency maneuvers or custom flight path planning.

• Tap to Fly: Select a target on the camera and the Dragonfish will automatically fly to the selected location and orbit the subject.

• Mission Management: Monitor past missions and assign flights.

• Quick Mission: Set points of interest on the flight map during any part of the mission and the Dragonfish automatically will deviate from its original path plan to pursue the pilot's needs.

 

dragonfish feature

The Dragonfish can be easily disassembled by a single person and fits into the trunk of any average-sized car. The entire system can be assembled without tools and ready to fly in less than 5 minutes.

dragonfish feature

The whole system self checks in 5 seconds and is ready to fly in 5 minutes.

Safety Mechanisms

GPS Loss Protection

If GPS signal is lost, the aircraft will automatically land at its current location.

GPS Loss Protection

Low Battery Protection

When the aircraft's battery reaches the set threshold, the pilot will receive a low battery warning, and the aircraft will start to return home automatically. Once the battery level has reached 15%, the pilot will receive a critical power warning, and the aircraft will automatically land on the spot.

GPS Loss Protection

Lost Signal Protection

If communication between the aircraft and the ground station is interrupted, the aircraft will use its GPS signal to return home automatically.

GPS Loss Protection
