Telemetry radio range testing "board" ready for action

Posted by UFO-MAN on July 24, 2009 at 3:00pm

I will start doing some radio range tests across the valley (line of sight) with this "test-board" today. As you can see this is test board #1, and it looks ... well ...The tests will be carried out by car at first. If the tests are sucessfull, the INU will possible become airborne within a few days. First some out of the loop tests, then I will start integrating the DevBoard into the airframe and test some RTL etc.UFO_MAN

    Is there any info on your telemetry system (schematics, parts, code, etc) that I could look at? I'm interested in adding telemetry to my UAV Dev board that I have converted to Helicopter operations.

    Thanks in advance,

    I use also his system since 10 months already with great success together with Ardupilot and remzibi OSD.

    Hi. The red board is a UHF long range diversity receiver. This board will be integrated so I dont need a box.
