Elistair Reveals New Tethered Power Module for DJI M30

by DRONELIFE Staff Writer Ian M. Crosby

Elistair has revealed a new tethered power module for the DJI M30 drone. Designed to serve the needs of first responders requiring an uninterrupted aerial view with little logistical impact, the module gives operators access to the M30’s capabilities for longer missions such as event protection, firefighting, border surveillance, and response support. Compatible with the Ligh-T and Safe-T Ground Power Stations, it enables hours of uninterrupted flight at up to 70 meters in height.

The onboard module enabling the tether power supply weighs 500g and is easily attached to the back of the drone, and resists temperatures between -20°C and +50°C. Its continuous power of 1000 Watts allows for hours of flight at 70 meters. The module also lets operators switch quickly between free flight mode and captive flight mode.

“Our goal is to offer great flexibility to Law enforcement and first responders by continuously enhancing our compatibility with the most suitable drones for security missions. We offer the widest range of air modules, and the development of a module dedicated to the DJI M30 was highly anticipated,” said Elistair CEO Guilhem de Marliave. “The main challenge was to develop a module that was light and powerful enough to allow operators to fully exploit the observation capabilities of the M30 thanks to an optimal flight altitude.”

Over 1,000 of Elistair’ tethered drone stations are deployed worldwide by security forces. With nine years of experience and close collaboration with its customers, the company is able to provide products that are both effective and intuitive. Boasting a variety of air modules, a single Elistair station can be connected to over 40 UAVs, letting operators select the ideal solution for each mission.
