Description
DragonScope resolves encrypted DJI flights to a specific airframe. WarDragon kits detect those flights and correlate them per flight without it; what they cannot do alone is decode the encrypted identification.
This is a separate capability rather than an unlock. Detection is included with every kit permanently and does not depend on this service remaining active.
In service with investigations and incident response, corrections facilities documenting repeated delivery attempts, venue operators identifying returning operators across multiple days, and infrastructure sites building a record of repeat overflights.
What it decodes
| Data | Detail |
|---|---|
| Aircraft identification | Serial-number attribution for supported DJI implementations |
| Pilot location | Operator position, where present in the transmission |
| Takeoff location | Home point, where present in the transmission |
| Flight telemetry | Drone GPS, altitude, and speed, where transmitted and supported |
| Encrypted variants | Coverage including OcuSync 4, extended by software release |
Without the service
| Signal | Coverage |
|---|---|
| Unencrypted DJI | Detected and decoded by the kit |
| Encrypted DJI, including O4 | Detected, with a per-flight identifier for tracking and correlation |
| Remote ID | Detected and decoded by the kit |
| Serial number | Not resolved |
Without internet connectivity, compatible OcuSync 4 aircraft still appear as detections with per-flight correlation.
Licensing
| Term | Detail |
|---|---|
| Scope | One license per sensor; licensing scales with the array |
| Term | Annual subscription, renewed yearly |
| Compatibility | All WarDragon Pro and Elite kits |
| Connectivity | Pairs with the cellular WAN upgrade where a site has no wired network |
Whether it applies
Organizations that need to know an aircraft is present, and to route that detection into an operating picture, do not need this service. The kit does that on its own, permanently, with no recurring fee.
Organizations that need to establish which aircraft, whose, and from where — because an event has to support an investigation, a prosecution, or a formal report — need attribution, which is what this service provides.
Detection performance varies by RF environment, antenna placement and height, aircraft type, protocol behavior, line of sight, and deployment configuration. Documentation and setup guides are published on the support page. Use of WarDragon kits and the DragonScope service is subject to our terms.
