Features

Built for the battlefield, tested in the field

📡

Starlink-Optimised Streaming

SRT protocol with adaptive bitrate and forward error correction tuned for satellite uplink. Streams 1080p H.264 reliably over Starlink's variable bandwidth.

🛰

MAVLink Over Satellite

Forward telemetry from ArduPilot/PX4 over Starlink to any GCS, cloud, or analytics endpoint. Serial and TCP input with CRC validation and multi-destination routing.

🌎

Live Map & Tracking

Track your UAV in real-time on an interactive map with GPS trail, flight mode, altitude, speed, and satellite count — accessible from anywhere via Starlink.

📹

Dual Camera Support

RPi Camera Module and thermal imagers (V4L2). Crash-safe MKV recording on-board with simultaneous live stream over satellite — never lose footage.

🔌

VPN Mesh Network

Built-in Tailscale creates a secure mesh between the UAV, Starlink, and your command post. Access the dashboard from any device, anywhere on the planet.

Lightweight & Field-Ready

Runs on a 45g Raspberry Pi. No laptop needed on-site — configure everything through the web dashboard over Starlink or local Ethernet.
