READY-TO-FLY 4G/5G CONNECTED DRONE Sky Drone Mk1 is the first Ready-to-Fly (RTF) drone that is exclusively 4G/5G connected. The drone is being controlled via a ground control station like Mission Planner or QGroundControl. MADE FOR BVLOS Sky Drone Mk1 has been built for true BVLOS flight operations. No traditional radio controller is needed for takeoff, landing and in-flight control. All drone commands are sent via 4G/5G connection from the ground control station to the drone and vice versa.

CAMERA PAYLOAD Sky Drone Mk1 is compatible with a variety of payloads. This includes the Yuneec E10TX, E10TvX, E30ZX and E90X. Sky Drone Mk1 ships by default with the camera payload Yuneec E90x with the below stated specifications. CAMERA PAYLOAD SPECIFICATION Resolution Still: 20 Megapixel Resolution Video: 4k at 60fps Gimbal: 3 axis gimbal Remote Control: Gimbal control (all axis), trigger control Storage: microSD card slot for onboard storage Vendor & Model: Yuneec E90x SECURITY ENCRYPTION Sky Drone Mk1 is end-to-end encrypted using AES256 encryption - a FIPS 197 approved cryptographic algorithm. Communication between the drone and ground control station is secured with government-grade encryption including command & control commands, telemetry and video imagery data. As such Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) and Secure Real-Time Protocol (SRTP) both use AES256. 4G/5G CONNECTION SPECIFICATION BVLOS Transmission Range: Unlimited In any area with mobile network coverage, data and video transmission is available; incl. international roaming areas. Video Transmission Resolution: Full HD (up to 1080p 30fps) Antenna: dual external antennas included Typical Glass-to-Glass Latency:
