Setting up a DJI RTK controller with a Trimble receiver that supports NTRIP Client using the WebUI. 

The radio that was connected was an Intuicom BridgeX. This can also be used to send RTCM corrections to a DJI supported drone. This device eliminates the requirement of standing next to the receiver since the corrections will now be pushed out to a static IP address.

He says elliptical but im worried of it crashing into trees and getting lost in the forest. Going to do a field test to see which is better to use

Excuse the auto correct

Hi Daniel, any luck with question ? thanks

Use wgs84 (lat, long, height above ellipsoid) for the photo EXIF data, then change to local or state plane coordinates with the model processing software (Pix4d output coordinates). The Mavik 350 RTK does use the corrections for photo positions. I think some of the earlier DJI drones used RTK only for drone positioning.

It must be a global lattitude and longitude and Height above Ellipsoid

It's my understanding it doesn't support NTRIP Casting

Any browser works. I usually use a iPad and Chrome

I believe you're limited to the range of the wifi connection from the Trimble Base to the DJI Controller - so 20m or so?

@Evan Dyson that's what I've found out too. It's very limiting... in a lot of surveys I will setup base and be half a mile to a mile away from base operating at multiple locations. This RTK function would be so much better if we could receive base information like our rovers... much more logical... right now we're testing our new Mavic 3E with setting up a secondary r10 base on-site, but by the time we get all of that going I could throw out 5 or so extra targets and be flying.... we need someone to figure out a way to get these controllers to speak to the base via radio just like rovers have been doing for decades... my company would literally pay for that option/program/part. If you've done this, someone, let me know.

@@sambarney5100 have you guys found a way to get the rtk corrections to the controller while being far away from the base? Cheers

This technique requires line of sight with the receiver since it's actually an ad-hoc wifi connection to the receiver. If you are required to move with your drone for line of sight. I'd recommend the blue device you hear me mention in the video which is an Intuicom BridgeX ethernet bridge. Which pushes the corrections over a static IP address

It's old school. I wish they'd bring them back

I have the same question I woudl like to use an R10 for a base instead of purchasing mroe equipmetn thank you

@@chrismaurer5557 We're a survey company with multiple R10s and R12s, and just did a test run with an R10 in base mode with our M300 and I connected to it and flew just fine. Haven't processed the data yet, but at first glance it seems to work fine following this workflow.

@@brianjurgella6678 Thank you for reply My other research into this found that I can make it work, but only through the WiFi connection, which is not helpful for our situations. I was hoping that it would be able to receive the radio link that our rovers use

I believe the Trimble base need only communicate with the controller. I believe the drone need only collect its own data, the controller handles all the processing and corrections. If the question is "does the R10 have enough range to reach the drone" I don't believe it needs to.

⁠no need to purchase a DJI D-RTK
