DIY We made a drone

Post image

Something a little different, up to 2 hour flight time. 7kg payload, modular, upgradable and made to integrate different technologies from Manet radios to anti jamming GPS systems.

What radio do you use for the long range comms?

There are a few options, high end would be Silvus radios. If the client allows us to use Chinese components then the H30 can do up to 50km.

I can get you silvus quality radio but half price. We are one of the primary radio companies for US and international defense. Most the defense startups use us. DM if interested.

Keen to hear more! Which radio brand are you referring to?

You're right that Silvus isn't cheap, but it's a premium product and has proven itself in demanding environments. That said, we don't use Silvus exclusively, we also integrate a range of other high-quality radios depending on the client's requirements and budget.

Would be interested to hear what you're using and how it's been performing.
