Drone connectors We have been working with connector manufacturer ODU for many years, using its AMC connector in our ground control station (GCS). Tis is a highly valued and widely used connector in dismounted soldier systems in the military, because it is easy to handle and offers a robust break- away design. Te connector also withstands harsh conditions and has been designed to meet the MIL-STD-810H standards. Our GCS module is the central hub
for all ground control equipment and is responsible for operating the flight control soſtware and managing all telemetry communication. It communicates with the Airboxer’s antenna systems and pilot control unit via Ethernet, so it requires a rugged, safe and reliable connector like the AMC. In fact, all high-quality VTOL UAVs require connectors that withstand the most extreme environments and function reliably – whether in scorching heat or super-cold environments. Te system dependability in these situations is crucial.
Key cooperation Te cooperation between High Eye and ODU is marked by several key features, and customisation is one of them. Whether adapting connectors to fit specific requirements, or developing bespoke payload capabilities, we are both committed to provide solutions tailored to the unique needs of each client. Both our companies are constantly
looking for ways to push the boundaries of possiblity and develop new technologies that will help our customers achieve their goals. Tis focus on innovation is what sets our collaboration apart and will ensure that we remain at the forefront of our respective industries.
