Singaporean tethered drone solutions provider Volarious wants DJI’s new flagship drone, the Matrice 4E and Matrice 4T to fly forever.

Which is why the company has announced the launch of its latest product, the V-Line Pro for DJI Matrice 4 Series. The tethered system is now compatible with the DJI Matrice 4E and 4T models, offering extended flight durations for various operations.

“The Matrice 4 series is DJI flagship drones for enterprise industries, it excels in diverse applications such as surveillance and event monitoring” said Weiliang, CEO of Volarious.

“The V-Line Pro reduces the need to land the drone for battery swap thus reducing blind spots.”

Volarious’s V-Line Pro features a lightweight, aviation-grade cable that allows the drone to be tethered up to 70 meters. It also includes a smart tension system that minimises cable slack in strong winds, enabling operation by one person. The reel speed mechanism supports an ascent and descent rate of 7 meters per second without any high tension in the tether cable.

In its statement, Volarious added that the new system is also equipped with multiple safety features, including an Advanced Thermal Control system that monitors and adjusts the temperature at multiple points in the tether system using six temperature sensors and nine fans.

The V-Line Pro can be connected to various battery station to power the drone. With a 2 kWh AC battery, the drone can fly continuously up to 10 hours. Additionally, the V-Line Pro comes with the V-Assist App which enables remote monitoring capabilities of the tether system data.

“We are motivated to bring the use case of the Matrice 4 Series to a new height,” Weiliang explained.

He believes the new tether will benefit professionals across various fields.

“Whether you’re a firefighter, search and rescue officer, or security professional, the V-Line Pro will enhance your aerial operations.”
