Aerologix FLY is Aerologix’s flagship product that allows Pilots to gain access to a number of industry-leading flight automation modules such as AeroPath and AeroLive
AeroPath is a flight automation software that enables a Pilot to programmatically fly any of the supported drone models around a telecommunications tower
AeroLive is a drone live streaming solution from Aerologix that enables multiple Pilots to simultaneously stream high-quality video from different locations to a single command and control center
You can access any Aerologix FLY flight module by purchasing a Flight Plan from the Aerologix FLY “Plans” page. Android users can purchase directly from the Android mobile application and iOS users can purchase a Plan by logging into their Aerologix or Aerologix FLY account, selecting a Plan of their choice, and completing the Purchase
Currently Aerologix Fly supports some of the most popular DJI drone models including the DJI Mavic series and the DJI Phantom series
No, AeroPath is purpose-built for Telecommunications towers
If your DJI drone has a critically low battery percentage, it will automatically initiate a “Return To Home” which will cause the drone to fly back to the location where it took off from
Step 1 - Enter the details of the Object - Object Height, Object Length, Object Width
Step 2 - Click on the “+” button to add different flight levels (a flight level refers to a fixed altitude at which the drone will fly ad capture images around a vertical structure in an orbital pattern)
Step 3 - Click “Save Plan & Continue”
Step 4 - The drone will then automatically take off and fly to the centre of the Object
Step 5 - Confirm the centre of the object by moving the centre point of the map
Step 6 - You will notice that the “Start Flying” button becomes the “Confirm” button which you can click to commence programmatic drone flight around the Object
The ideal conditions to perform an AeroPath flight are:
Ensure sufficient sunlight in order to maintain the visibility of your drone as well as ensure that the images captured during the flight can be used to generate 3D models
Flight is always maintained within Line of Sight
Avoid windy conditions above 15mph
Avoid performing a flight during rainfall, snowfall or extreme weather conditions
A pre-flight checklist is a quick safety checklist of items that are required in order for the drone to interpret and carry out an AeroPath flight. The pre-flight checklist is not mandatory but strongly advised before commencing any AeroPath flight.
Connecting through a cable (DJI Mavic, DJI Phantom series):
Ensure that there are no DJI or drone flight applications running in the background of your device. If you find any active applications, close them
If you have configured DJI applications to automatically open when you connect the remote controller, you will have to change your default to Aerologix FLY
Start your drone and remote controller and ensure that they are connected
Connect your remote controller to your mobile device and choose Aerologix FLY when you’re prompted which app to launch
Connecting through WiFi (DJI Phantom Series):
Ensure that there are no DJI or drone flight applications running in the background of your device. If you find any active applications, close them
Force stop all DJI applications to prevent them from running in the background (this is a mandatory step)
Start your drone and remote controller
Connect to the WiFi network of the drone through your mobile device
Launch the Aerologix FLY application
If you lose connection with the drone mid-flight or in the middle of an AeroPath mission, the drone will initiate an auto Return To Home (RTH) and return to the location of drone take off.
Yes, even if you have commenced an AeroPath Flight and the drone is mid-flight, you can override the Flight at any point in time using the flight controls of the remote controller.
Once you have overridden AeroPath, the drone will no longer be able to continue on the AeroPath designated flight path and you will be required to restart the Flight
