PRISM Sky provides all required communications over a single, bi-directional, radio signal and is delivered with either 2.4Ghz DoodleLabs or Silvus Embedded Radio preconfigured and installed in the aircraft. Users are provided the option to purchase KONTACT that is also preconfigured with a 2.4Ghz DoodleLabs or Silvus Embedded Radio or the stand alone 2.4Ghz DoodleLabs or Silvus External Radio for their Ground Control Station. In addition to the DoodleLabs and Silvus radios, PRISM Sky is capable of accepting various radio modules, including but not limited to:

  • Silvus StreamCaster 4000 Series MIMO Radio

  • DoodleLabs 2.4Ghz Radio

  • Persistent Systems Radio

  • Microhard MIMO 2.4GHz Radio

  • RFD900x long range 900 MHz Radio Module

  • Botlink Professional Long Range 900MHz Radio

All systems include an air unit and ground unit, and operate on the 2.4 GHz spectrum. KONTACT incorporates RC control, MAVlink telemetry and HD Video streaming into one compact system. If you choose not to use the KONTACT or stand alone Ground Control Station, alternatively you may choose a receiver option for the transmitter you chose and then may bind to your own radio as usual.

Due to the modularity and flexibility of this system, other drone operating systems, including the ability to stream video, as selected by the operator may be used as well.

WARNING: Advanced users may elect to modify the communication systems. Damage to or destruction of the aircraft resulting from modification of the manufacturer’s default configuration will not be covered under warranty, and Watts Innovations will not be held liable for damage to persons or property resulting from these modifications.
