Day module

A module that ensures autonomous target engagement even if the drone loses communication with the operator as a result of electronic warfare measures.

The system does not require calibration or presets: the operator can use the drone with minimum or maximum payload – the algorithms automatically adapt to weight, wind, and flight conditions.

Our goal is to integrate solutions into all types of drones so that the operator can independently select the desired operating mode: classic FPV, guidance, cruise control, or a combination thereof.

Key benefits

Captivation

The VGI-9 guidance module allows the operator to engage targets at distances of up to 3,000 meters and altitudes of up to 1,000 meters. The system works equally effectively with static and moving targets. The maximum speed of a moving target for engagement is up to 80 km/h.

Cruise

The VGI-9 system allows the operator to activate Cruise Control mode, in which the drone automatically maintains speed, altitude, and flight direction. This mode reduces the load on the operator, increases resistance to electronic warfare, and optimizes battery usage.

Compatibility

The VGI-9 guidance module is compatible with the main types of FPV drones – 7“, 8”, 10“, 13” and 15" – without being tied to a specific platform. For drone manufacturers, the module can be integrated into their own models via the contact form on the website for further cooperation.

Vision

The optical tracking system produces a stable and clear image at a rate of over 50 frames per second, ensuring comfortable operation and precise control. The high refresh rate minimizes video stream delays and increases tracking accuracy.

Autonomy

After capturing the target, the VGI-9 daytime module operates autonomously, providing stable tracking without constant operator control. The system compensates for wind effects and changes in drone weight, maintaining high accuracy when tracking static and moving targets.

Experience

The VGI-9 daytime module is used in real combat conditions, where the system is subjected to stress and electronic warfare. The architecture of the solution and the guidance algorithms are optimized based on combat experience and feedback from unit operators.

Combat tasks performed by VGI-9

Countering electronic warfare

The guidance system allows striking static and moving targets at speeds of up to 80 km/h, even in areas affected by enemy electronic warfare measures.

Weather conditions

The module's tracking camera ensures stable operation in foggy, hazy, or low-light conditions thanks to its high resolution.

FPV preservation

The system allows the drone to continue flying along a predetermined trajectory in the event of loss of communication with the operator during a mission until communication is restored.

Precise damage

The guidance module ensures stable target engagement regardless of the drone operator's level of training and practical experience in combat conditions.

Mission distance

Cruise control mode reduces battery consumption during flight, increasing mission duration and range during flight.

Ease of operation

The drone with the guidance module does not require additional settings and can be quickly mastered by the operator directly in the field.

Cruise control mode

Cruise control mode enables autonomous flight of the FPV drone in a specified direction with automatic speed, altitude, and course maintenance, compensating for the effects of wind and external factors.

In this mode, the drone covers significant distances and continues flying even if communication is lost, maintaining the specified parameters. Once communication is restored, the operator can regain control at any time and continue the mission.

FAQ

How do VGI-9 guidance modules work?

The VGI-9 system uses computer vision technology to capture and track a target previously identified by the FPV drone operator. The operator visually identifies the object, points the cursor at it, and presses the corresponding button on the control panel. The system then automatically locks onto the target and switches to autonomous tracking mode until it is accurately hit.

Thanks to the combination of automated guidance accuracy and human flexibility, the VGI-9 system demonstrates high reliability and efficiency in various conditions, regardless of wind strength and direction or the availability of a stable connection with the operator.

Do VGI-9 modules limit the capabilities of an FPV drone?

The VGI-9 automatic guidance modules do not reduce the combat capabilities of the FPV drone and do not impose any restrictions on the payload weight. The effectiveness of using a drone with the VGI-9 system is entirely determined by the technical characteristics of the drone itself.

Thanks to its flexible settings, the VGI-9 system easily adapts to any drone configuration, ensuring stable operation and high accuracy in hitting targets in various operating conditions.

What is the flight duration of the drone in Cruise Control mode?

The flight time of a drone in cruise control mode directly depends on the capacity of the battery installed on the drone. However, other factors that also affect flight duration should be taken into account. These include the type and model of the drone, flight conditions (wind, temperature), drone load, and flight speed. Cruise control mode optimizes flight, but does not eliminate the influence of these factors.

In addition to battery capacity, the efficiency of the drone's power management system is an important factor. Cruise control mode minimizes unnecessary maneuvers and maintains a stable speed, allowing the drone to fly more efficiently.

Which FPV drone manufacturers use VGI-9 modules?

What types of targets can VGI-9 modules hit?

VGI-9 modules are capable of effectively capturing and tracking any targets regardless of their type, size, location, or degree of camouflage. The system is equally effective for hitting both static and moving objects.

As soon as the operator gives the command to lock onto the target, the FPV drone automatically switches to autonomous tracking mode, reliably keeping the target in its field of view until it is destroyed. This ensures high combat effectiveness even in difficult operational conditions.
