Long-range UAV Antenna Tracker

Our antenna tracker maximizes radio communication range between your drone and the ground control station and therefore allows to use of the maximum potential of the data link. It uses the drone position information to accurately orient the antenna in the UAV direction. It’s necessary to have precision tracking systems when seeking to operate over long distances, which makes antennas a fundamental component.

What makes a great antenna tracker for your drone?

It significantly increases the quality and range of stable communication and provides a reliable HD video transmission. So, if you’re looking to buy a tracking antenna, we’d like to draw your attention to this exclusive tracking unit that matches the parameters mentioned above and much more!
To ensure maximum reliability during the mission, we integrated two communication channels into our UAV tracking antenna system. The main data link is used for the telemetry and video transmission, and the backup data link transmits telemetry using another frequency.
The antenna tracker is equipped with a built-in video camera, which allows you to have visual control over your drone close to mid-range distance. Besides these advantages, the tracking antenna system can also be equipped with a directional high-gain antenna.

Double redundancy: Two datalinks integrated

There are two datalink integrated, main one to transmit both video and telemetry and backup, that provide more range and utilizes different frequency, so you can keep control over the drone in harsh environment.

Main datalink: 130+ km range video and telemetry datalink

Main encrypted jam-resistant datalink allows to transmit both real-time video and drone control signals.

Backup datalink: 130+ km range backup C2 telemetry datalink

System will automatically switch to different datalink in case of loss signal with the main datalink.

Built-in video camera

To visually control the drone during takeoff and landing.

5 meters mast

Mechanical, electrically powered 5 meters mast to maximize connection range with the drone during long-range missions.
