Find fish before you get there, scout great casting spots from the air, and record all the action of landing that prize lunker — the Axiom UAV app makes Mavic drones the ideal fishing partner.
Drones are useful on fishing and charter boats. And now, onboard control of the popular DJI Mavic Pro drone is a reality with the Raymarine Axiom GPS/fish finder UAV app. Combining advanced UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) imaging with the navigation system, it simplifies the operation of both technologies.
The app includes a suite of powerful tools to control the drone. Common tasks such as launching, airborne imaging, in-flight navigation, and return to boat are easily accessed from Axiom, Axiom Pro, and Axiom XL multifunction displays.
While utilizing drones for fishing has been called out as unethical by some crowds., the tool is becoming popular with others. And a UAV’s utility extends beyond just an “aerial fish finder.” Let’s explore what it can do.
Fish-Finding Drone: Scouting Mission
Using GPS navigation, the Mavic Pro will fly to precise locations and hover — a useful tool for gathering intel. Fly the UAV to waypoints or points of interest, or chart locations by simply selecting a point on the map and pressing the UAV Goto command within the app. Or send the drone on advanced reconnaissance missions by creating custom waypoints or routes. Then, view imagery live on the Axiom screen.
