Full MAVLink2 telemetry over LTE. Connect QGroundControl or Mission Planner via UDP — no range limit. 10x cheaper than Elsight Halo.
SiK, RFD900x, and Crossfire radios lose signal at 1-2 km in real conditions. Trees, buildings, and terrain kill line-of-sight links.
Elsight Halo ($5,000+), uAvionix muLTElink ($1,000+), Droniq HOD4track (~$1,500). Priced for enterprise, not independent operators.
Setting up your own VPN + 4G modem + MAVLink relay requires Linux networking, custom scripts, and constant maintenance. One config change breaks everything.
Power on, cellular connects in under 60 seconds. Full MAVLink2 stream flows from your drone to the cloud instantly. No configuration nightmares.
Open QGroundControl or Mission Planner, enter the UDP address, and you're connected. Full telemetry, waypoint missions, monitoring — from anywhere.
