Patrol the full feeder,
not just the substation.

DJI's Matrice 350 RTK holds 9 km under transmission-corridor interference — not the 20 km on the spec sheet. WirEng® restores deterministic 60 km link budget so a single operator covers a feeder Dominion-style. No NERC-CIP supply-chain re-vetting. Your FAA BVLOS waiver stays valid.

/ Install

No NERC-CIP re-vetting. No waiver re-file.

External antenna upgrade only. No firmware, no SDK, no software supply chain change. The DJI / Skydio fleet your utility already cleared stays cleared. The FAA BVLOS waiver you already hold stays valid.

  • No NERC-CIP supply-chain re-vetting
  • FAA BVLOS waiver preserved (no airframe substitution)
  • Existing AES-256 link-layer encryption untouched
  • Substation / pump-house IP-rated chassis preserved

Drop-in gain for
the platforms you already operate.

Stock figures = published OEM controller range under line-of-sight, default polarization. WirEng® figures = the same platform with the recommended WirEng® signal chain. Field-verified across operator deployments.

/ Mission profile

What utilities teams
need from an RF chain.

/ 01

SAIDI / SAIFI without a relay-station fleet

One feeder corridor used to need multiple repositioning stops. WirEng® delivers Percepto / FPL / Dominion-class coverage from the airframes you already operate.

/ 02

Doesn't trigger NERC-CIP re-vetting

External antenna only — no firmware, no software supply-chain change, no NERC-CIP attestation re-file. The DJI / Skydio fleet you already cleared stays cleared.

/ 03

Holds the link inside switchyard EMI

At 480 kV substations, stock OcuSync degrades to under 3 km. Directional gain restores 8 km of usable feed inside the same noise floor — what Skydio markets X10 for, on the airframe you already own.

/ 04

BVLOS waiver-compatible

Antenna swap doesn't change the type-certified UA. Dominion-style 40+ facility BVLOS operations expand without re-filing the waiver.

/ Deployment scenarios

Real missions WirEng® systems run today.

/ 01

25-mile wildfire-prone feeder

Stock OcuSync drops at 9 km in transmission corridor interference. Vehicle-mounted MDC-OMNI-EB™ covers 40 km of feeder in one mission — find the failed insulator before ignition, with a Part 107 pilot at the substation gate.

/ 02

480 kV switchyard patrol

Inside a high-voltage substation, stock telemetry breaks under 3 km. Quadrant-REF-ACV™ aimed-direction with >25 dB front-to-back isolation holds 8 km of usable 1080p feed inside the same EMI floor.

/ 03

Multi-state BVLOS scale-up

Dominion-style operation across 40+ generation facilities. Same airframe, same FAA waiver, same NERC-CIP attestation — just better antenna at the dock. No re-file, no re-vet.
