Connecting your DJI drone with YoloBox Ultra is easy, whether you prefer a wired or wireless connection. In this guide, we’ll walk you through both options so you can choose what works best for you.
Wired Connection
For a wired connection, you’ll need an adapter and an HDMI cable. Here’s how to set it up:
- Get an Adapter: Recommend using a UGREEN USB C hub, which has a USB-C input and HDMI output.
- Connect the Devices: First, plug the USB-C end into the controller. Then, use the HDMI cable to connect the hub and YoloBox Ultra.
Once everything is connected, you’ll see the drone’s camera feed on the YoloBox screen with zero noticeable delay.
Wireless Connection (RTMP)
For wireless connections, you’ll need an RTMP server. YoloBox Ultra supports RTMP, but the drone can’t connect directly to it—an RTMP server is required to relay the feed. So, here’s how to set it up:
Install RTMP Server:
- First, you’ll need a computer with an RTMP server installed. There are plenty of free RTMP server packages and guides online. So, make sure to pick one that’s compatible with your operating system.
- Second, make sure your computer, YoloBox Ultra, and drone are all on the same Wi-Fi network.
Set up RTMP on the Drone Controller:
- First, go to the controller’s display and tap the three dots in the top-right corner.
- Second, select Transmission, then choose Live Streaming Platforms and tap RTMP.
- Third, enter the RTMP address (e.g., rtmp://[Your IP Address]/live/drone). You can customize the last part of the URL if needed.
- Finally, hit Start to begin streaming.
Connect RTMP to YoloBox Ultra:
- On the YoloBox, go to the RTMP URL Input screen.
- Paste the same RTMP URL you entered in the controller.
- Hit Done and you’ll see the live feed from your drone.
Things to Keep in Mind
- Delay: There may be a slight delay when connecting via RTMP, but there shouldn’t be any buffering if your network connection is stable.
- Network: Make sure all devices (the drone, RTMP server, and YoloBox) are on the same Wi-Fi network to avoid connection issues.
Conclusion
With these steps, you can easily connect your DJI drone to YoloBox Ultra, whether you’re using a wired or wireless RTMP connection. For best performance, ensure your network is strong and all devices are connected properly. Happy streaming!
