DJI Mavic AIR2 Bait Release by SkyClip

DJI Mavic AIR2 Bait Release by SkyClip

The DJI Mavic Air2 clip is specifically designed to fit the drone like a glove – the clip also allows the bottom lights to be used.

What makes SKYCLIP different

Unlike many of its competitors, SkyClip utilizes a calibrated and qualified stainless-steel spring ball plunger system, making it incredibly reliable and corrosion resistant – perfect for use above and in saltwater environments.
Another important difference is the max tension is adjusted and set at factory to never exceed the specific drones carrying capacity – making it incredibly safe and ‘TO THE LIMIT’.
By maintaining a drop loop of standard diameter line, the tension force applied will always remain the same during releasing of the baits – This is very important for the Safety of the Drone. Tension down from max limit can be adjusted via a stainless-steel set screw to cater for different diameter lines and weights. Skyclip’s tension release mechanism massively reduces the chance of losing your drone due to reel bind or line snags while drone fishing, and SkyClip is awesome for trawling baits and lures.

Features

SkyClip for the DJI Mavic Air2 Bait Clip features a corrosion resistant Ball Spring Plunger that are constructed from AISI 303 Stainless Steel and roHS qualified. The ball spring plungers feature a hardened stainless-Steel ball, Stainless Steel Spring, with 18 Newtons end force capability
All SkyClip tension release mechanisms are calibrated in factory to the drones maximum lifting capacity – So there can be no chance of over-loading your drone
By maintaining a drop loop of standard diameter line of 0.70mm, the tension force applied will always remain the same during releasing of the baits – This is very important for the Safety of the Drone
SkyClips are lightweight, easy to attach and are extremely strong providing years of service
SkyClips are designed and manufactured so they do not interfere with your drones VPS – Visual Positioning Sensors) and when connected – maintain correct centre of balance.

SKYCLIP – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Please make sure to always use a drop loop length of 1 metre with 0.70mm diameter Mono in all situations for every cast.

Insert the line or clip in the slot of the Bait release until it locks in place.

Take-off the Drone and reach a defined safety height of over 20 meters above sea level usually.

Fly the Drone out over the water at maximum speed and make sure that your line does not touch the water during the flight.(Keep the line taught during flight – hold it in your hand) Once you reach the point that you want to drop the bait, close the lever of the reel mechanism so that the line stops bailing out.

DO NOT slow down the drone and keep the speed constant until the line releases automatically.

Finally bring back the Drone to Shore.

CAUTION

DO NOT slow down the drone and keep the speed constant until the line releases automatically.
Finally bring back the Drone to Shore.

The Story Behind SKYCLIP and UAV Electronics

UAV Electronics has been designing and producing special Electronics and Autopilots for Drones and Bait Boats since 2016. Whilst designing the electronic release systems for RC Boat fishing, the need arose for bait release systems for Quadcopter Drones. We initially developed an electronic release for the DJI Phantom Drone that was bolted to its underside and having tested this electronic release, we found that there were many drones being lost to the water due to the electronic release not releasing the line in time, or if there was a reel jam – the Drone essentially would fall from the sky as it was flying out the baits.

We began extensive research to try to develop something safer and more reliable and by chance we came across the Kite Clip release from a New Zealand website which specializes in Kite fishing accessories. The Kite Clip utilized a very simple design that consisted of two ball bearings pushing against each other with a spring behind them and the tension could be adjusted with a set screw. Having purchased one from New Zealand we tested it on Quadcopters with great success and we immediately saw the benefits of using a tension release system for drone fishing.

These mechanisms are readily available and made by factories in Europe which specialize in its manufacture, and they have been used extensively in other markets for many years. This provides a much more stable and quality manufactured tension mechanism which is extremely reliable, works flawlessly every time, will not corrode, and more importantly – we did not need to re-invent the wheel or require any special Patents.

After many designs and enormous testing – which continues today, we designed a new Tension release Clip which is integrated into our own designed gimbal mounts used for Drones to carry payloads and thus the SkyClip was born.
