What’s Included with the sUASOps Charging Dock
When you open the box, you’re getting everything I use in the field—nothing more, nothing less:
-
(1) sUASOps Charging Dock – the heart of the system
-
(1) 2-ft AC power cord – short on purpose to keep the cable spaghetti under control in a vehicle or on your power station
-
(4) T&B TY27MX Ty-Raps® (13.4", 120 lb.) – to lock the dock down to your DJI Power 1000 so it doesn’t move when you’re rolling to a callout
-
(2) T&B TY526MX Ty-Raps® (11", 30 lb.) – to secure your charging hub to the dock for a clean, mission-ready setup
-
LKTOP 200W Charger (optional configuration) – included when you select the dock + charger bundle
This is the exact hardware I run on SAR deployments—simple, secure, and no extra junk to get in your way when time matters.
Built From Real Mission Needs
The sUASOps Charging Dock was originally developed for my own operational workflow as a SAR and public-safety drone pilot. Call-outs often come with no advance notice, and because batteries are stored at a safe 40–60% charge level for longevity, charging must begin while en route.
Seating Matrice batteries into a charging hub inside a vehicle requires precise alignment. The dock’s guided, fixed-position design makes battery insertion fast, easy, and secure—even while mobile.
By mounting the complete Charging Assembly on top of a DJI Power 1000, the result is a:
- Clean
- Self-contained
- Mission-ready
charging station — with no loose cables running across the vehicle and no unstable equipment.
Mission-Ready Battery Organization for the Field
Looking for a better way to manage your DJI Matrice 4 batteries during transport and charging?
The sUASOps Charging Dock is purpose-built to securely hold and organize your Matrice 4 series batteries, creating a stable, efficient, and professional charging setup for serious drone operations.
Dock Only
or
Complete Charging Assembly (Dock + LKTOP 200W Charger)
This gives you a fully integrated, ready-to-deploy charging solution right out of the box.
Build a Complete Charging Station
The dock is precision-fit for the DJI Power 1000 (V1/V2), creating a fully integrated charging station.
Charging Station configuration features:
- Dedicated rear mount for RC Plus 2 controller
- Self-contained cable management
- Stable mobile deployment
Also compatible with:
- Most portable power stations
- Any flat charging surface
Field-Ready Flexibility
🚗 Charge While En Route
In Charging Station configuration, the unit can be safely positioned in a vehicle’s back seat or floorboard so batteries charge while you travel to the mission.
🛠 Rapid On-Scene Deployment
At the operation site, simply place the dock on a table or stable surface for fast battery swaps and continuous charging near your flight area.
🔌 Vehicle Inverter Compatible
When using a vehicle inverter, operate in Charging Assembly mode (Dock + Hub) and secure the unit with mounting hardware or Velcro if desired.
For additional redundancy, connect the DJI Power 1000 to the inverter and use it as a UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply):
- Keeps the power station charged
- Maintains continuous output during engine cycling
- Ensures mission-critical batteries are always charging
Designed for Professional Operators
Ideal for:
- Public safety & emergency response
- Inspections & industrial operations
- Mapping & surveying
- Utility and infrastructure work
The result: faster turnarounds, reduced downtime, and a cleaner, more efficient battery workflow.
Material Options – Built for Real-World Operations
Both versions are engineered for daily professional use.
Your choice comes down to color customization vs. maximum structural performance.
🌈 PETG – Durable, Functional, and Available in Multiple Colors
A proven, high-performance material that delivers:
- Excellent strength and heat resistance
- High impact durability
- A clean, professional appearance
- Multiple color options for team, aircraft, or workspace identification
PETG offers an outstanding balance of performance, reliability, and value for everyday operations.
🛡️ ASA-GF (Glass-Fiber Reinforced) – Performance Upgrade
For operators who want the most rigid and structurally reinforced version available.
This advanced composite provides:
- Higher stiffness and structural strength
- Reduced flex under load
- Lighter weight than PETG
- Excellent thermal and environmental stability
- Professional tactical gray finish
Because ASA-GF requires specialized filament drying, hardened print infrastructure, and higher material cost, it is offered as our premium performance option for demanding environments and heavy daily use.
Which Version Is Right for You?
Choose PETG if you want:
- Multiple color options
- Proven durability for daily operations
- Outstanding value
Choose ASA-GF if your priority is:
- Maximum rigidity and strength
- Lighter weight
- The most robust version we offer
Both are built for serious drone operators — the material simply lets you tailor the dock to your mission and workflow.
