Dock Settings
The Dock tab configures the physical docking station associated with the currently selected device. Changes apply to that dock only and are pushed to the hardware on save.
Dock Location
Set the geographic position of the dock so the aircraft knows where to return.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Dock Latitude | Decimal degrees latitude of the dock pad |
| Dock Longitude | Decimal degrees longitude of the dock pad |
| Dock Heading | Compass heading the aircraft should face when landing (0–360°) |
Use Fetch from drone to populate latitude/longitude from live telemetry, or Set on map to click a point on the map view.
Dock Speed & Altitude
| Field | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Dock Location Speed | 0–15 m/s | Maximum speed when returning to dock |
| Dock Location Altitude | 0–120 m | Altitude the aircraft climbs to before beginning its return |
Safe Location
A Safe Location is an alternate landing zone used by failsafe routines when landing at the dock is not possible.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Safe Location Latitude | Decimal degrees latitude |
| Safe Location Longitude | Decimal degrees longitude |
| Safe Location Altitude | Descent altitude above the safe location (m) |
Use Fetch from drone to use current aircraft position, or Set on map to click a point.
DJI Dock 3 compatibility
Some fields are disabled when a DJI Dock 3 is selected because that hardware manages those parameters internally. Disabled rows are visually greyed out.
After saving dock location coordinates, verify the map pin has moved to the correct position before launching a mission.
