The usage of drones in 2024 for commercial operations will far surpass all previous years on record. With the advanced drone technology now available it’s difficult to ignore them. With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at some of the standout commercial drones for sale currently in the market.
In this article we’ll look at the impressive Autel range and take a deeper dive into standout models like the Quantum Systems Trinity Pro and Elios 3 with a LiDAR survey payload. Wrapping up with a quick nod to the ever-dependable DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise. Let’s get into it…..
Autel Robotics
Kicking things off we wanted to highlight a very special family of drones covering all specialist areas from Autel Robotics. Autel have already made a significant impact on the market with its diverse drone lineup, and we’ve gone through some of the key highlights for you here:
Autel Evo Max 4T
Aimed at commercial applications, the Evo Max 4T includes multi-spectral imaging and advanced AI capabilities. It is especially useful in agriculture for monitoring crops and assessing plant health through spectral data analysis.
Autel Dragonfish
The Dragonfish is designed for long-range operations with its fixed-wing design allowing over 120 minutes of flight time. Its VTOL capabilities mean it can operate in diverse environments, making it suitable for tasks like border surveillance and large-scale geographic surveys.
Quantum Systems Trinity Pro
Designed to greatly improve precision surveying and mapping output, the Quantum Systems Trinity Pro is equipped with advanced sensors and offers outstanding endurance. This drone is ideal for comprehensive data collection across extensive areas, enabling precise 3D mapping of terrain and structures, essential for environmental monitoring and urban planning. The Quantum Trinity Pro’s extended flight time allows for fewer interruptions, boosting the efficiency of data-gathering missions. Its durable design ensures reliable operation under various environmental conditions, making it a valuable tool for geospatial professionals who need to collect detailed landscape data for analysis and planning.
Flyability Elios 3
The Elios 3 is designed for indoor use, excelling in confined spaces, and comes equipped with a LiDAR payload for surveying and mapping. However, a significant upgrade is set for Q2 2024. Flyability will introduce an ultrasonic thickness measurement (UTM) payload, designed for certified UT inspectors. This will enable spot thickness measurements in challenging locations like ship hulls, tank interiors, and pipe ranks. The Elios 3 enhances safety by reaching hard-to-access points, streamlining wall thickness and corrosion surveys. It features a smart arm with a laser pointer, a couplant dispenser for effective ultrasound transmission, and can tag each measurement on a digital twin. Additionally, the drone can carry a cleaning module for surface preparation, improving its inspection capabilities.
DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise
The lineup wouldn’t be complete without mentioning one of our most popular drones –the Mavic 3 Enterprise. It features a 4K high-resolution camera for clear imaging, advanced data security for operation in sensitive scenarios, and extended flight times suitable for complex missions. Portable yet durable, it’s designed for a variety of environments and tasks, including infrastructure inspections and environmental monitoring. Enhanced with obstacle avoidance technology and autonomous flying, the Mavic 3 Enterprise is a reliable tool for professionals requiring comprehensive aerial surveillance and detailed data collection.
Applications Across Industries
These drones are tailored for specific applications, enhancing productivity and efficiency in their respective fields:
Autel Evo Max 4T excels in environmental and agricultural monitoring.
Autel Dragonfish is adept at security surveillance and extensive area mapping.
Quantum Trinity Pro and Elios 3 enhance surveying and inspection tasks with precise data collection and modelling capabilities.
DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise is ideal for large scale intricate projects including inspections and surveying and mapping at scale.
