3dr ground station

Posted by Tommy on October 14, 2015 at 11:08am

I lost my 3dr ground station from iris+. So, should i buy new 3dr ground station along and connect it to air station? or i need to buy both air and ground stations and change it in the iris+ guts?

Need a good answer because i'm a new in such questions....

    Just a note. Buy 3dr brand radio. I purchased a set of, a "knock off" variety. And noticed decreased distances. But I don't mind if it gets lost / thrashed/ etc... They both have their advantages.

    You only need one, and don't need to replace the one in the iris

      Thank you very much, Bill Bonney.

      You'll just have to go into Mission Planner, optional hardware, 3DR radio, and make sure both units have the same settings, so they can talk to one another.

    I have an extra radio TX9

      I beg a pardon, maybe i called it wrong. I lost the antena with module that connects to smartphone.

      TX9 is the transmitter, am i right?

      They sell set, so i don't need a set. I need only the ground part.

      Exactly... but 3DR really doesn't have their parts sales set up logically.  They should sell many items by the piece as well as a set, but they don't.  Similar to other parts offerings, you sometimes need to buy things in groupings to get what you need, along with stuff you don't need.  I wish they would take a close look through their parts department and fix these issues by offering some items like these radio components individually.

      Just the antenna or the whole unit?
