We recommend you follow through with all the steps once you receive your drone. Additionally, the Wingtra Knowledge Base offers a wealth of information on how to make the most of your Wingtra drone. A good starting point is the Quickstart guide for [WingtraRAY](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/en/getting-started-with-wingtraray?hsLang=en) o[WingtraOne Gen II](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/en/register-your-drone?hsLang=en). ### Index - [First Steps with Green or Blue sUAS Wingtra drones](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/en/first-steps-blue-suas-wingtraones?hsLang=en) - [How to update your software](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/en/blue-suas-software-updates?hsLang=en) - [Software releases (changelog)](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/en/blue-suas-software-releases-changelog?hsLang=en) - [License activation](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/en/blu-and-ppk-license-activation-on-blue-suas-drones?hsLang=en) - [Flight planning](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/en/flight-planning-with-blue-suas?hsLang=en) - [Blue UAS system security guide for WingtraOne Gen II](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/en/blue-cyber-security-guide?hsLang=en) ### Registration for Blue UAS drones As a pilot that flies the Wingtra drone  under the Blue UAS label and authorization to operate (ATO), you need to complete a few additional requirements. First, you have to register with the US Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) under [this link](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeieYJfpGMkQwFicCVPddQVUBZEnN2eSnjWCTODgpfssxm-_w/viewform). This ensures that the DIU can keep track of Blue UAS customers and distribute new or critical information. All information from the DIU is normally also published online [here](https://www.diu.mil/blue-suas-2#Wingtra). Most notably Blue pilots must abide by an air gap requirement, i.e., they must not connect the WingtraPilot ground control station tablet to the internet while being connected to the Wingtra drone. Before and whenever the ground station telemetry module is plugged into the ground station tablet, the user must ensure that the WiFi connection on the tablet is turned off. Note that only WingtraOne Gen II 2022 drones with IDs numbered 2630 or greater can be Blue UAS compliant. ### Payloads The following payloads are Green and Blue UAS approved for use on a WingtraRAY: - MAP61 - Sony RX1R II - SURVEY24 - MicaSense RedEdge-P - INSPECT The following payloads are Green and Blue UAS approved for use on a WingtraOne Gen II: - Sony RX1R II - Sony a6100 - Oblique Sony a6100 - MicaSense Altum - MicaSense RedEdge-MX - MicaSense RedEdge-P - Sony RGB61 ### WingtraPilot BLU license and telemetry encryption You'll need to purchase a WingtraPilot BLU license in order to make the WingtraRAY or WingtraOne Gen II Green or Blue UAS compliant. This license enables telemetry encryption. Follow the instructions in this [tutorial](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/en/blu-and-ppk-license-activation-on-blue-suas-drones?hsLang=en) to turn the telemetry encryption on for your Wingtra drone. It is the user's responsibility to make sure the encryption is turned on at all times to operate in compliance with the Green or Blue UAS requirements. ### Up next Read about about the first steps with your Green or Blue Wingtra drone in [this article](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/en/first-steps-blue-suas-wingtraones?hsLang=en)**.**   -
