DJI Pilot / Pilot 2

Stream RTKdata.com corrections to your DJI Enterprise drone via the DJI Pilot / Pilot 2 app (Mavic 3E, Matrice series). Get centimeter-level accuracy by configuring Custom Network RTK with RTKdata’s

DJI Pilot / Pilot 2 — How to Connect with RTKdata.com (NTRIP RTK Setup)

Connect DJI Pilot / Pilot 2 to RTKdata.com to stream RTCM corrections over NTRIP and reach RTK: FIX fast.


Requirements

  • Aircraft + controller powered and linked (e.g., Mavic 3E + RC Pro Enterprise)

  • Internet on the controller (Wi‑Fi or phone hotspot/LTE)

  • RTKdata account credentials

  • Open sky so the aircraft (not just the controller) can get a GNSS fix


Connection settings (copy/paste)

Step‑by‑step (Pilot 2)

  1. Bring the controller online Connect the RC to Wi‑Fi or a phone hotspot/LTE.

  2. Open RTK settings Camera view… (top‑right)RTK → enable RTK Positioning.

  3. Choose the source Select Custom Network RTK (not D‑RTK 2).

  4. Enter parameters Fill Host / Port 2101 / Username / Password / Mountpoint (ALL CAPS, e.g., AUTO). Save.

  5. Go outdoors & wait for aircraft GNSS Stay outside until the aircraft (not only the RC) shows a normal GNSS fix.

  6. Start the link Tap Start Transmitting. Pilot 2 now sends NMEA GGA automatically; the caster selects a nearby base and streams RTCM back.

  7. Verify FIX Watch the status: RTK: FLOAT → RTK: FIX. You can also check that RTCM is incoming and the satellite count looks normal for your location.

Critical DJI tip: If you started transmission before the aircraft had a GNSS fix, the session may stay connected but GGA = 0 (no corrections). Tap Stop Transmitting, wait for aircraft GNSS, then Start Transmitting again.


Common pitfalls (fast fixes)

  • Wrong source selected: Must be Custom Network RTK, not D‑RTK 2.

  • Indoors / no sky view: Aircraft has no fix → no GGA → no corrections. Test outdoors.

  • Credentials typo: User/pass are case‑sensitive.

  • Mountpoint typo: Only AUTO, AUTO_WGS84, AUTO_ITRF2020, AUTO_ITRF2014 (ALL CAPS) are valid.

  • Local Data Mode / strict MDM profile: May block telemetry. Disable for testing.

  • Firewall/IT policy: Ensure TCP 2101 is allowed.


Quick health check (1 minute)

  1. Go outside, ensure aircraft GNSS fix.

  2. Start Transmitting; wait 10–20 s.

  3. Confirm RTK: FIX in the top bar.

  4. If stuck on FLOAT/Single: stop/start transmission after GNSS fix, recheck mountpoint = AUTO, verify username/password, and confirm internet.


When to use a different mountpoint

  • AUTO (recommended): applies the regional frame (NAD83(2011) in North America, ETRS89 in Europe, GDA2020 in Australia).

  • AUTO_WGS84 / AUTO_ITRF2020: choose if your downstream processing requires a fixed global frame.
