DJI + ANKER SOLIX · SITE CONFIGURATION

Remote operations.
Planned together.

Dock 3 operations need dependable power, network coverage and a suitable installation. Start with the full operating plan.

WHAT BELONGS IN THE PLAN

Hardware is one part of the system.

01

Flight infrastructure

Dock 3 with a Matrice 4D or 4TD, a suitable mounting location, reliable network access and the required flight-management account.

02

Power & solar

Review S5000 as a backup-energy option. Size panel count, input voltage, cables and storage against the site’s measured daily demand.

03

Installation scope

Specify weather protection, cable routing, grounding, surge protection and commissioning with a qualified installer.

ENERGY BUDGET FIRST

Power sized to your operating day.

A 400 W array with four equivalent peak-sun hours and a 75% planning factor yields about 1.2 kWh per day. Dock 3 is rated up to 800 W input, while actual energy use depends on charging, cooling, heating and flight frequency.

400 W × 4 h × 75% = 1.2 kWhMeasure daily use before sizing

S5000 and a 400 W panel are a sizing starting point, not an approved unattended off-grid installation. Dock’s internal backup battery does not charge the aircraft. Confirm transfer behavior, weather protection, local electrical requirements and overnight reserve before installation.

MANUFACTURER WALKTHROUGH

THE WORKING SCENARIO

A site plan for recurring missions.

Infrastructure teams evaluating repeatable remote inspection and documentation.

01

Survey the location

Check mounting, weather exposure, grounding, network access and operating requirements with qualified specialists.

02

Size the energy system

Measure the complete site load and daily mission plan. Select storage, panels and reserve for local solar conditions.

03

Commission and verify

Test normal supply, backup behavior, network recovery and the chosen operating procedures before unattended use.

Power equipment is a design candidate until the electrical design and site tests are complete. A panel rating alone does not establish continuous or off-grid operation.
