Range Extender

The accessory that goes beyond limits

Have peace of mind and enjoy comfort in all your operations. Use the Range Extender easily anywhere and keep Elios in control over obstacles that may arise.

In environments such as underground tunnels, stacks or mines, signal propagation can be limited by the geometry of the inspection site and remote operation of a robot becomes difficult.

By placing the antennas of the remote control in a better position, closer to the drone, it is possible to extend the range of the drone.

General:

  • Operating temperature: 0 °C to 40 °C.
  • Compatible with Elios batteries.
  • Made of 4 replaceable sub-modules (power module, antenna module, 2 meter cable and 20 meter cable).

Cables:

  • 1 x 2m cable between remote control and power unit.
  • 1 x 20m cable between power unit and antenna unit.

Antenna Unit:

  • Dust and splash resistant.
  • Built-in antennas.
  • Standard mounting thread.
  • Reflective stickers.
  • Easy to export.

Power Unit:

  • It informs the user about the remaining battery level.
  • Warning when the battery is low.
  • Strap holder for battery.

Applications

Underground Mining

Many underground mining areas are simply too dangerous for anyone. Therefore, workers are asked to stay out of these areas. By deploying the Range Extender within these areas prior to any flight, an Elios pilot will gain some valuable meters that make impossible missions possible.

Search and Rescue

In many cases, the environment of a rescue can be dangerous for rescuers. Keeping a certain distance from it is, very often, necessary. By using the Range Extender, the Elios pilot will increase the signal quality between the control station and the drone and consequently increase the range of the drone.

Inspection of enclosed areas

Getting workers into dangerous confined spaces is one of the key advantages of Elios, but sometimes the material used to construct the building disrupts signal propagation. By using the Range Extender inside the danger area, the pilot can operate the Elios from outside in any situation, as the drone will always fly within close range of the signal.

Sewer Inspection

Because they are made of concrete, sewers tend to absorb radio control signal energy. If the pilot is standing on the surface next to the drain shaft, signal propagation is very limited and so is the range of the drone. By deploying the Range Extender on the sewer shaft, the pilot can control the drone from the surface. This prevents the pilot from having to expose himself to danger or unpleasant situations.
