WISPr Systems' Drones
WISPr Systems commercial drones are designed to carry a customer premise equipment (CPE) antenna and power the CPE to complete a site survey. We support Cambium and Ubiquiti antennas. The traditional site surveying method of using a bucket truck or climbing on a ladders and roofs to manually surveying can take a lot of time and effort that can be cut out using WISPr Systems’ drones. Our drones do all the heavy lifting for you!

WISPr Systems commercial drones. Engineered to autonomously complete site surveys for CPE and tower installs.
WISPr Systems' drones are specifically engineered to manage the payload of CPE antennas in moderate to high winds. POGO's maximum payload is a 5lbs CPE antenna in 20MPH winds.
The maximum payloads is calculated with 15lb added to the payload calculation. This allows for some cushion room when flying in high winds, which compensates for wind-load on the CPE antenna. The convex and concave surface area of a CPE antenna introduces additional wind drag on the drone, creating 10lbs of added payload per 10MPH wind-load.
Figure 1 shows an example of the surface area introducing the wind drag.
WISPr Systems drones are have mounts for CPE antennas built in. The Pogo has the undercarriage space to carry a 12" CPE.
The drone needs to have undercarriage space to mount the CPE. Most CPE are around 6.4"-16", so having the appropriate undercarriage space is critical to flying with the CPE.
The illustration shows an example of the undercarriage space.
The drone’s thrusters (motors) need to be placed high enough above the drone’s central payload to naturally force the payload to stay level. This assists the machine-learned processes to increase the stability of the drone with variable payloads. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) states that the drone needs to carry payload directly under the center of gravity point on the aircraft.
The illustration shows an example of the motor placement.
To survey with a CPE, the CPE must have power! Our drones are equipped with 24V power over ethernet (POE) port to power the CPE. The port also allows our WISPr OS software to operate the drone and communicate with the CPE.
WISPr Systems' drones altitude is sensed by a altimeter fused with LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) for altitude accuracy within ±2 cm for altitude and vertical control.
A first person view camera comes pre-installed on all WISPr Systems' drones to give the user a 1080p birds-eye view from drone during flight.
