Nowadays, agricultural  drones in the agricultural industry has become a common phenomenon. Some large-scale farming areas have used plant protection drones, but since the drones are high-tech products, they are in use. In the process, if there is no fault in the process, it will make people feel helpless. I don’t know how to deal with it. For this reason, this article will share the common faults and corresponding treatment methods of several agricultural plant protection drones. I hope to help you. 

Agricultural plant protection drone failure is not necessary Mastering the law of response can “solve”

●GPS can not be located for a long time

First calm down and wait, because GPS cold start takes time, if you wait a few minutes, the situation still does not improve, probably because the GPS antenna is blocked. The GPS is disturbed by nearby electromagnetic fields. You need to remove the shield, keep away from the interference source, and place it in an open area to see if it is better. In addition, the reason for this may be that the GPS is not energized for a long time, the distance between the local and the last GPS positioning is too long, or the microwave power switch is turned on before the agricultural plant protection drone is positioned. You can try turning off the microwave power switch, turning off the system power, and restarting the system power for more than 5 seconds to wait for positioning. If it is not positioned at this time, it may be a problem with the performance of the GPS itself, which requires professional agricultural plant protection drone maintenance personnel to handle.

● too far from the route when flying automatically

First, check whether the agricultural plant protection drone is leveled, and adjust the aircraft to direct flight and maintain a high altitude without intervention. Secondly, check the wind direction and wind power, because the wind will cause such failures, you should choose to take off the drone when the wind is small. Again, check that the balancer is in the proper position, switch the aircraft to manual flight, and put the balancer in the proper position.

● The ground station cannot receive data after the control power is turned on.

Check if the connection connector is loose or not connected, whether to click the link button of the ground station, whether the serial port is set correctly, whether the serial port baud rate is set correctly, whether the ground station and the aircraft's digital transmission channel are set consistently, and the agricultural plant protection drone is on the same Whether the GPS data is sent to the flight controller. As long as there is a problem with one link, it will not be able to communicate, and the connection will be re-connected after checking. If you can't connect after checking, restart the ground station computer and the aircraft system power, you can usually connect to the communication.

Here, the manufacturer also reminds everyone that since agricultural plant protection drones are precision instruments, small changes in any components will affect their flight status and service life. Therefore, be careful when handling drone failures and operate in accordance with relevant regulations. In order to avoid damage to the performance of the drone due to various problems.
