FAQ

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

Which drone platforms is the controller suitable for?

It is designed for professional UAV systems including industrial inspection, public safety, and mission-oriented deployments requiring reliable long-range links and low latency.

What’s the difference between Complete Unit, SKD and CKD?

Complete Unit is ready to use out of the box. SKD ships with key modules pre-assembled for fast regional integration. CKD ships as individual parts to maximize localization, cost control, and compliance with import/export restrictions.

Can developers build their own apps on the controller?

Yes. The platform uses an open Android environment, enabling custom application development and integration.

Does it support MAVLink-based flight stacks?

Yes. A serial communication interface supporting MAVLink is available for integration with common flight control ecosystems.

Is it suitable for outdoor and harsh environments?

Yes. It supports operation from -20°C to +70°C and provides a high-brightness (1000 cd/m²) FHD touchscreen for outdoor readability.
