What’s New in UniGCS v3.0?
Following four months of user feedback since the v2.0 release, SIYI has delivered a comprehensive upgrade that transforms how pilots interact with their entire unmanned system.
One-Stop Parameter Tuning
Integrated adjustment for gimbals, remote controllers, flight controllers, and propulsion systems. No more switching between Mission Planner and QGroundControl—everything lives in one interface.
Telemetry Log Playback
Automatic local recording of telemetry data with dynamic flight trajectory replay. Analyze altitude, speed, and aircraft status at any moment post-mission—track landing points and diagnose anomalies with precision.
Intelligent Route Planning
Custom, rectangular, and circular route generation with up to 300 waypoints. New features include waypoint photo points, camera FOV angle display, loiter radius configuration, and terrain height visualization.
Customizable Voice Alerts
Enable, disable, or add custom voice alert segments with configurable intervals. From flight mode changes to battery warnings, every critical event is announced in real-time—no more staring at screens.
Flight Controller Tuning Suite
UniGCS v3.0 eliminates the need for external tuning software. The integrated suite covers every critical aspect of flight controller configuration—from PID response curves to ESC signal calibration.
Adjust roll, pitch, and yaw control response with radio-button axis selection and real-time slider feedback. Configure SERVO1 through SERVO16 channel mappings, set PWM min/trim/max values, and reverse servo movement directly. Bind auxiliary channels (RC6–RC16) to functions like flight mode switching, payload dropping, and arming/disarming.
- PID tuning with slider and direct input for roll, pitch, yaw
- Servo configuration: normal/reverse, min/trim/max PWM
- RC IN settings for auxiliary channel function binding
- Flight mode setup with 6 preset PWM levels (AUTO, RTL, etc.)
- Frame type selection with power layout auto-loading
- Battery module calibration and low-voltage failsafe
- Motor testing (individual/batch) with custom throttle %
- ESC calibration with PWM/RPM range configuration
- Airspeed sensor calibration with pitot tube procedure
- Parameter table edit password protection
Personalized OSD & Voice Alerts
Every pilot has unique preferences. UniGCS v3.0 empowers users to customize their entire operational interface without touching a single line of code.
Long-press any telemetry data around the attitude indicator to configure font size, color, and display position. The new voice broadcast system supports custom alert intervals, individual alert enable/disable toggles, and fully user-defined announcement content. Critical safety checks like one-click arming/disarming—with force-arm override for failed checks—are now accessible from the main interface.
- Customizable OSD: font size, color, position around attitude ball
- Voice alerts: enable/disable, custom intervals, user-defined content
- One-click arming/disarming with force-override capability
- Three/six flight mode quick-switching on single channel
- Gimbal scan connection for automatic camera detection
Intelligent Route Planning Evolved
Building on the v2.0 foundation, UniGCS v3.0 introduces three route shape options and advanced mission visualization tools that transform pre-flight planning from chore to precision.
Generate rectangular routes with 4 draggable waypoints or circular routes with up to 300 points—radius and center defined by map interaction. Waypoint photo points display shutter trigger positions along the route for inspection traceability. Camera FOV angle visualization shows the camera’s field of view relative to the drone, enabling rapid gimbal angle adjustments mid-flight. The updated pre-flight check now includes route terrain elevation display, with optional local .TIF terrain-following files when network data is unavailable.
- Custom, rectangular, and circular route shapes
- Waypoint photo points with shutter trigger display
- Camera FOV angle visualization during route flight
- Loiter point radius configuration
- Flight trajectory length configuration
- Route terrain elevation display in pre-flight check
- Local .TIF terrain-following file support
Security Log & Playback
Flight safety demands accountability. UniGCS v3.0 introduces comprehensive telemetry log playback and flight controller log management—turning every mission into a data-rich learning opportunity.
Telemetry data is automatically recorded locally on the ground control station. Post-flight, replay the entire mission with dynamic trajectory display on the map, synchronized altitude and speed telemetry, and aircraft status tracking at any timestamp. Flight controller logs can be managed, viewed, downloaded, and maintained directly within the software—streamlining incident analysis and performance optimization.
- Automatic local telemetry recording during flight
- Dynamic flight trajectory replay on map
- Real-time altitude/speed sync during playback
- Aircraft status and landing point tracking
- Flight controller log management (view/download/maintain)
