Autel Dragonfish Standard | Extended VTOL Drone for ISR, Mapping & Inspection The Autel Dragonfish Standard is a tilt-rotor VTOL unmanned aircraft system purpose-built for extended ISR, mapping, and inspection missions. Sitting between the Dragonfish Lite and Dragonfish Pro in the Autel series, the Autel Dragonfish Standard delivers 126 minutes of flight time with payload, a 30 km transmission range, and support for a wide range of interchangeable sensor payloads — all in a backpack-portable platform that assembles in 3 minutes without tools. Autel Dragonfish Standard Key Features Smart, Simple, Efficient The Dragonfish Standard's tilt-rotor design eliminates complicated moving parts while maximizing performance and efficiency. Mission-ready right out of the box, it supports one-button takeoff and landing, AI-powered intelligent tracking, and seamless transition between multirotor and fixed-wing flight modes. Up to 126 minutes of flight time with payload 30 km transmission range with base station / 10 km direct GCS 108 km/h maximum speed in fixed-wing mode 15 m/s wind resistance in fixed-wing mode 6,000 m service ceiling 1.5 kg payload capacity for modular sensor configurations IP43 ingress protection for challenging field environments Dual RTK modules for centimeter-level positioning without ground control points Integrated ADS-B receiver for manned aircraft awareness Intelligence and Autonomy The Autel Dragonfish Standard is equipped with a full suite of automated mission functions powered by Autel Voyager software: One-Button Takeoff and Landing AI High-Speed Intelligent Tracking — lock on and follow targets automatically Tap to Fly — select a target on screen and the drone flies directly there Terrain Following for low-altitude operations over varied ground Point of Interest Orbit Quick Mission — deviate from preplanned routes on demand Waypoint, Polygon, and Rectangular Autonomous Missions Safety and Redundancy Automatic transition to multirotor mode in adverse conditions where fixed-wing flight may stall Dual-redundant CAN bus communication monitors control surfaces and motor status in real time Integrated airspeed velocity sensors resistant to snow and ice AI continuous system self-check to detect and prevent faults before they occur Automatic return-to-home on signal loss, GPS loss, or low battery Battery, IMU, barometer, compass, and positioning system all feature redundant designs Interchangeable Payload System The Dragonfish Standard supports toolless payload swaps across five gimbal options, all cross-compatible with the Dragonfish Lite and Pro platforms: Z2: Dual-sensor zoom and wide-angle camera T3: 4K 20× optical zoom, 12MP wide-angle, and 640×512 thermal imaging on a 3-axis stabilized gimbal T3H: Enhanced thermal configuration for demanding night and low-light operations L20T: 20× optical zoom, 640×512 thermal, laser rangefinder up to 1,200 m, and 4K wide-angle — for day-and-night reconnaissance and thermal inspection M1: Multispectral payload for agricultural and environmental data collection 9.7-Inch Ground Control Station The included ground control station features a 2048×1536 px, 1,000-nit TFT-LCD touchscreen with Samsung Exynos eight-core processor and 256 GB internal storage. Water and dust resistant with up to 4.5 hours of battery life and 30 km video transmission support via base station. Compact and Portable The Autel Dragonfish Standard can be disassembled by a single operator and fits in the back of a standard car trunk. The full system assembles without tools and is ready to fly in under 5 minutes.
