Which drones are compatible with the P1, on which stabilizer port can it be installed?
Suport M300 RTK, and currently can be installed only on the single downward gimbal of M300 RTK.
What position do the photos taken by the P1 record?
In photos taken by the P1, the position of the exit pupil in the center of the camera lens is recorded.

New position and orientation compensation function that writes precise camera exit pupil positions in photos based on the positions and orientations of the drone and stabilizer.
FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS
How does intelligent oblique capture work?
This function allows you to take photos from multiple angles during a flight by controlling the load. All ortho and oblique photographs required for 3D reconstruction can be obtained in a single flight path. Only photos that are essential for reconstruction will be taken at the edge of the flight area, minimizing the number of images taken and significantly increasing post-processing efficiency. Unique oblique capture strategies are applied to each flight path in different flight areas to ensure complete data capture in all target areas. The flight speeds will vary for each flight segment as the camera rotates to capture oblique and ortho photographs as efficiently as possible, as determined by the algorithm. Currently, this function is only available using the M300 RTK with the P1. To use the feature, enable it under Cartography in the Flight Mission settings of the DJI Pilot application.
What is the camera tilt angle range during P1 intelligent oblique capture?
The tilt angle range is -45° to -90°.
Can intelligent oblique capture ensure that photos cover the edges of the flight area?
Intelligent oblique capture allows users to capture sufficient data for the selected measurement area. Photos will be taken from five different angles to cover the entire area, including the edges.
Why aren’t images taken at the pivot points in smart oblique capture?
As the camera firing angle can be affected by the position of the aircraft during turns, containment zones are added in the algorithm to account for this. No photos are taken at the pivot points to ensure that the P1 captures images at an accurate tilt angle.
How does variable speed flight work in intelligent oblique capture?
Each section of the flight path comes with a different oblique capture sequence, which means that the time spent completing each sequence and the speed at which each section is completed can vary, assuming a constant overlap rate. The aircraft will operate at maximum efficiency in intelligent oblique capture mode.
Why does the trigger sequence in smart oblique capture only capture four angles, trs angles or even one angle sometimes, but not five?
In intelligent oblique capture, only photos essential for reconstruction will be taken at the edge of the flight area. The trigger sequence executed depends on the size of the measurement area demarcated by the user, the flight altitude and the tilt angle of the camera.
How does the ground pixel size of the data collected by the P1 relate to its flight altitude?
24 mm objective: GSD=H/55;
35 mm objective: GSD=H/80;
50 mm objective: GSD=H/114;
The ground pixel size (GSD) is measured in centimeters (cm)/pixel; the distance to the target (H) is measured in meters (m).
In which topgoraphic and cartographic scenarios can P1 be used?
The P1 can be used in multiple surveying and mapping scenarios, including 2D orthomosaic, 3D oblique, detailed modeling and real-time mapping.
Does the M300 RTK support PPK post-processing when used with the P1?
Yes. The task folder stores photos, original GNSS observations and TimeStamps.MRK files, which are used for PPK post-processing calculations.
What types of application control are supported by the M300 RTK when used with the P1 aerial surveying solution?
It is currently only compatible with DJI Pilot.
What operating modes are supported by the P1 when used with the M300 RTK?
The P1 supports the following operating modes: aerial photography (including intelligent oblique capture), oblique photography, corridor mapping flight, trajectory flight and manual operation.
What modes of operation are supported for constant altitude flight paths?
The constant height flight path function is available in Mapping mode, but not in Oblique Photogrammetry, Corridor Mapping Flight or Intelligent Oblique Capture modes.
Does intelligent oblique capture work in corridor mapping flights?
No.
