Our team was doing a survey around the beach, but the area has a very poor internet connection. We used Emlid Reach RS2 as a base station, we had “Average Single” most of the time, when we try to connect it to our DJI 300M, it would not connect to Emlid, and the drone wouldn’t take off; it seems like the drone only connects to Reach when it has a “FIX” position. If this happens again, is there a way that we could fix the problem?
Drone integration with Emlid Caster requires a stable internet connection as corrections are passed over the internet.
If an internet connection is an issue, you can also try using the Local NTRIP option. It allows passing the corrections between your Reach RS2 base and controller over a Wi-Fi network. You can also connect directly to the Reach hotspot, but you’ll need to stay within a few meters.
