BVLOS DRONE FLIGHTS : OPTIONS AND THE WAY FORWARD
BVLOS DRONE FLIGHTS : OPTIONS AND THE WAY FORWARD Col CR Sundar Article Number 1 At present in our country almost all drone flights take place with transmitter receiver units of Chinese origin. They could be FlySky CT6B model or the slightly up market FlySky FS i6 model. Both these models work on the free frequency of 2.4 GHz. They have a maximum range of about 300 meters and therefore in all cases the drone remains within visual line of sight (VLOS). Some hobbyists attempt to fly drones with do-it-yourself transmitter receiver units using Arduino NANO and nRF24L01 transceivers made by Nordic Semiconductor of Norway. If used in open space with lower baud rate this transmitter receiver can have a range of up to 100 meters. Thus we see that alm...
