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.
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.
