Internet Controled UAV

Posted by ReD-DaWg-OnE on June 1, 2008 at 12:54pm
Hey guy I am kind of new to the entire UAV thing, in fact I was thinking about it and I didn't realize that there were entire groups out here that built them. I was wondering if anyone had built a UAV that was controllable over long range via a data card of some sort. You could stream the video, relay the GPS location, is this possible?Thanks!

    The Paparazzi team has demonstrated flying several UAVs controlled over the Internet simultaneously.

    Certainly, it is possible, though I've only done it at relatively close range using WiFi (802.11b/g) - here's an example -




    However, one user of my boards that was achieving close to 2 mile range with WiFi using a directional antenna with the ground station.
