Overview

The Holybro SiK telemetry radio is a small, light, and inexpensive open-source radio platform that typically allows ranges of better than 300m out of the box. With a patch antenna on the ground, the range can be extended to several kilometres. This plug-and-play telemetry radio is ready for Pixhawk Standard and other flight controllers, making it an easy way to set up a telemetry connection between your flight controller and a ground station. It uses open-source firmware designed to work well with MAVLink packets and to integrate with Mission Planner, ArduPilot, QGroundControl, and PX4.

Features

  • Open-source SiK firmware
  • Plug-and-play for Pixhawk Standard flight controllers
  • An easy way to connect your flight controller and ground station
  • Interchangeable air and ground radio
  • Micro-USB port (Type-C adapter cable included)
  • 6-position JST-GH connector
