DJI Phantom 4 RTK differs from the other drones in the Phantom series because it focuses on performing flights for high-precision survey and mapping projects. The built-in DJI RTK System eliminates the need for setting up ground control points that are usually required for obtaining precise location position for the images being collected during flight. The precision in the location position is achieved by the transfer of data and streaming error correction from the ground control system. It is also capable of performing PPK post-processing on satellite data. This RTK version of Phantom 4 uses OcuSync2 transmission system, which has a stronger signal than earlier Phantom series drone, resulting in a larger range for transmission to the drone. The Phantom 4 RTK’s camera is similar to the earlier Phantom drones but it has some new features like, RTK (kinematic real-time) positioning module, a new TimeSync system, and a mapping app.
Pricing for DJI Phantom 4 RTK starts at $6,200. Important note, the DJI Phantom 4 RTK may not be flown in other countries outside of the U.S. There are other specific versions for different countries and/or regions.
