Precautions

  • When using the ROPPOR Server or ROPPOR Private, it is necessary to calculate if you have sufficient video storage space in advance (A minimum of 35 Megabytes of storage space is required per minute per drone on Full HD setting). If there is insufficient storage space, it is not possible to store images, which can result in loss of valuable data or drone control due to computer malfunction, etc., which can lead to drone loss or safety accidents.
  • Depending on the region where drone is operated or other environmental changes, the quality of mobile communication network, such as upload and download speed, might be significantly lowered and this may cause malfunctions and uncontrollable situations due to loss of communication with drones. Please operate after carefully testing the quality of mobile network in your area where drones will fly through a test flight.
  • Only one software is allowed to be installed per PC to minimize the possibility of malfunction.(ex. ROPPOR Art cannot be installed on the PC where ROPPPOR Server is installed).If you want to install other ROPPOR software while there is already installed Roppor software, uninstall the existing software and then install the new one.
  • The ground control/art performance operation software for PC installation can be installed and operated on one or more PCs targeting the same drone (group) in the case of ROPPOR Server but can be installed and operated on only one PC in the case of ROPPOR Private and ROPPOR Art.
  • Construction of a large-scale control room using multiple displays such as a video wall is available only with ROPPOR Server, not with ROPPOR Private and ROPPOR Art.

Exceptional Flight Information

  • In an effort to comply with aviation safety laws around the world, the initial setup of all ROPPOR software is limited to a flight altitude of 120m or less, a flight radius of less than 100m, and a flight time before sunset after sunrise(during daytime).
  • Flight beyond the scope of the initial setting ( exceptional flight) is not available in the trial version and is only available for paid customers when it is possibly proved to comply with the relevant laws (e.g., submit an exceptional flight approval issued by the relevant Government ministry or department).
  • Paid users who wish to make an exceptional flight, please fill out the exceptional flight application form and send it to staff@roppor.com along with documents proving that you will comply with the relevant laws and regulations.
  • In countries where there are no legal restrictions on drone flights or government-related organizations or organizations that are not subject to legal restrictions, you do not need to provide proof of compliance.
  • For exceptional flight inquiries, please email staff@roppor.com
