Drone Dock Solar Security Trailers: Self-Sustaining Mobile Surveillance Platforms With Ground AI Detection and Autonomous Aerial Response

Dronefly's Drone Dock Solar Security Trailer series is a two-platform lineup of enterprise-grade mobile surveillance systems designed for organizations that need deployable, self-sustaining security coverage without permanent infrastructure. Both platforms ship fully integrated — cameras, speaker, NVR, and solar power — and connect remotely through an onboard 5G modem from day one. The series covers two distinct capability tiers built around a common platform architecture, giving fleet operators and security teams a clear path from essential site coverage to full autonomous aerial response.

The series is built on a straightforward deployment model. Every trailer is solar-powered, towable, and configurable to match your site and operational requirements. Both platforms include a UNV IP Horn Speaker for active audio deterrence as standard, and both support live SOC monitoring upon request. For programs that also require high-intensity area illumination, Dronefly's Solar Powered Light Tower pairs directly with either trailer — combining a 400W high-lumens LED array, a 10.8 kWh battery, and a camera-ready 20 ft mast on a single towable unit to extend lighting and surveillance coverage from the same fleet asset.

The difference between the two security trailer tiers is the depth of the detection and response stack — from fixed-camera visibility and audio deterrence at the Lite level, to coordinated edge AI analytics, PTZ verification, and autonomous DJI drone response at the Hawk level.

Two Platforms, One Scalable Architecture

The Drone Dock Solar Security Trailer series is designed so that organizations can start at the right capability level and scale up as operational requirements grow. The Lite and the Hawk share a common trailer platform, PoE camera architecture, NVR ecosystem, and IP horn speaker integration. An organization that deploys the Lite today can transition to the Hawk configuration without replacing the entire system. For fleet programs spanning multiple sites at different risk levels, the two tiers can be deployed in parallel — Lite units covering lower-risk or temporary locations, Hawk units anchoring high-value or high-risk sites. The Solar Powered Light Tower can be added to any deployment as a standalone lighting and camera-mounting asset, completing the coverage picture at sites where overnight illumination is a program requirement.

Drone Dock Security Trailer (Lite) — Essential Solar Surveillance With Active Audio Deterrence

The Lite is Dronefly's entry-level mobile surveillance platform, combining three fixed 4MP Easystar bullet cameras, a UNV IP Horn Speaker delivering up to 130 dBSPL, and a 4-channel IQ PoE NVR on a compact solar trailer with 5G remote access. It is built for construction sites, parking lots, laydown yards, temporary event perimeters, and any location where a fleet operator needs consistent, remotely managed site coverage without on-site support.

The PoE camera stack is plug-and-play from the trailer frame. The IP Horn Speaker integrates with the NVR and responds automatically to camera-side detection events including Smart Intrusion Prevention and Ultra Motion Detection. ANR technology on the NVR protects recording continuity during cellular interruptions, and the 5G modem enables remote live view and playback from any location. For rotating fleet deployments, the standardized hardware stack and towable format make commissioning, redeployment, and maintenance straightforward across multiple sites.

Starting at $1,399/month on a 6-month minimum term.

Drone Dock Security Trailer (Hawk) — Autonomous Ground-to-Air Security Platform

The Hawk is Dronefly's top-tier mobile security platform, combining a full ground detection stack — two fixed 4MP bullet cameras, a 4MP PTZ camera with 5x optical zoom, a UNV IP Horn Speaker, an 8-channel IQ PoE NVR, and a Uniview Smart Box running selectable edge AI behavior analytics — with a DJI Dock 3 and DJI Matrice 4TD drone system on a medium-frame solar trailer with a rear dock platform and higher-capacity solar array.

The ground layer detects, classifies, and generates alarms at the edge without cloud dependency. The PTZ camera tracks confirmed ground-level activity. The IP Horn Speaker delivers immediate audio deterrence when a detection event fires. When an event requires aerial confirmation, the Dock 3 launches the Matrice 4TD autonomously in approximately 10 seconds — no pilot required. The drone conducts thermal and optical aerial verification, tracks moving targets using Smart Track, and feeds incident data back alongside ground camera footage, PTZ imagery, and Smart Box alarm data. For enterprise security teams managing large or high-risk sites, the Hawk delivers a detection-to-documentation workflow that runs continuously, day and night, without requiring a person on site to initiate each step.

Starting at $3,999/month on a 6-month minimum term.

Solar Powered Light Tower — Off-Grid Illumination With Camera-Ready 20 ft Mast

For programs that need area lighting alongside their surveillance trailers, Dronefly's Solar Powered Light Tower is a natural complement to both Drone Dock Security Trailer platforms. The unit delivers 400W high-lumens LED output from a 20 ft manual mast powered by three 435W solar panels and a 10.8 kWh battery — zero generator, zero emissions, and zero noise. The mast includes an integrated camera mounting box, so programs can deploy lighting and surveillance equipment from a single towable unit rather than managing separate assets per site.

Mounted on a single-axle trailer with a US standard hitch and mechanical brake, the Solar Powered Light Tower positions alongside either Drone Dock Security Trailer to extend coverage into unlit perimeter areas, active work zones, or access points that require overnight illumination. For enterprise programs managing multiple remote or rotating sites, combining the Solar Powered Light Tower with a Lite or Hawk trailer gives each location a fully integrated, off-grid lighting and surveillance stack from a two-trailer footprint.

Available at $18,999 — sold separately. Contact the Dronefly team to discuss pairing with your Drone Dock Security Trailer configuration.
