The Maestro M52 provides an integrated, efficient solution for industrial drone users, enhancing drone performance in various complex environments with its advanced technology and versatile functionality.
The Maestro M52 utilizes advanced wireless channel coding and control technology to achieve a transmission distance of up to 34 kilometers. It can simultaneously transmit HD video, flight control data, RC data, and gimbal control data. Thanks to efficient data processing algorithms, the M52 supports four-way independent transmission, enabling industrial UAVs to perform ultra-long distance real-time cruise detection, mapping, exploration, and patrol operations.
The Maestro M52 is equipped with three Ethernet ports, allowing users to connect it to an Ethernet gimbal and other payloads simultaneously. For HDMI/SDI/AV port payloads, we offer the MF05 and MF08, which can be connected to the M52 using a single switching cable included in the accessory box. The M52 also features two UART ports—UART1 and UART2—supporting both Mavlink and Transparent protocols, which can be easily configured via Maestro Assistant or the web page. Additionally, it includes two SBUS ports—SBUS_IN and SBUS_OUT—for RC data transmission.
The Maestro M52 features a powerful data and video processing platform, and the provided SDK API allows for secondary development to meet individual needs. Through the SDK API, users can monitor and configure radio parameters such as RSSI, frequency, bandwidth, and transmit power. The M52 SDK system supports the parsing of the Mavlink protocol, enabling easy access to flight parameters like altitude, distance, GPS, and battery level, which can be overlaid on the video. We have deep partnerships with leading payload manufacturers, and the M52 includes built-in PTZ control protocols from these manufacturers. This allows users to achieve PTZ control, shooting, and casting through the M52's SDK API. The SDK API communicates over the network, making it very convenient for users.
The maxium transmission distance of M52 can reach 34km*3,allowing the drones to explore a wider space during operation and improve operation efficiency.
The M52 offers two frequency bands, 800MHz and 1.4GHz, for customers to choose from, providing strong anti-interference performance through advanced channel coding technology and a dual-channel filter design. Utilizing our company's patented power amplifier technology (Number: CN1077077207A) alongside excellent circuit and industrial cooling designs, the M52 boasts high efficiency and low heat output. This makes it suitable for demanding industrial applications.
We offer a series of compatible products designed to seamlessly integrate with the Maestro M52, requiring no additional configuration. The MF05/MF08 codec series addresses diverse interface and ultra-low latency needs. With 4G video transmission, you can stream video and data from the drone operation site to the internet, eliminating distance limitations. Using a tracking antenna can further enhance transmission stability, maximizing the M52's performance. Explore our products for more surprises.
