FAQs
Knowledge Base
How do I install and configure SkyLink radios on my drone?
Install SkyLink radios by connecting them to the drone’s autopilot via a transparent TTL/RS232 serial interface. Position the antennas to avoid shadowing and maximize line-of-sight with ground stations. Follow specific instructions for physical mounting and electronic configuration from the SkyLine ARS User and Installation Manual​.
How do I physically install muLTElink on my UAS?
Install the muLTElink system in a location within the airframe that allows easy access to the autopilot and maintains minimal RF coaxial cable length for antenna installation, as longer coax lengths can result in signal loss. Ensure that the antennas are installed in locations that minimize shadowing and electromagnetic interference.
Can SkyLink operate independently, or does it require integration with other systems
SkyLink radios are designed to operate as part of a larger system and require integration with the SkyLine network management for full functionality. This integration allows for real-time telemetry, health monitoring, and enhanced control capabilities​.
What are the recommended checks and maintenance procedures for SkyLink radios?
Regular maintenance includes checking the antenna connections, ensuring the device is free from physical damage, and verifying that the firmware is up to date. Conduct routine tests to ensure the system’s operational reliability, especially in diverse environmental conditions​.
How do I resolve connectivity issues or interference encountered with SkyLink radios?
Check for proper antenna placement and ensure there is no physical obstruction or source of interference near the antennas. Verify all connections are secure and that the device settings are correctly configured for the operational environment. Resetting the device or updating the firmware may also resolve issues.
