Relay

A mode for working through an intermediate vehicle: one device (the relay, e.g. a drone in the air) carries the video and control of a distant vehicle that has no internet of its own.

  • Relay — this device has internet and passes the second vehicle through itself.
  • Target drone — this vehicle's video is fed into the relay, and control goes through the relay's radio link.

A second radio link between the vehicles is required.

For each drone, mark which video streams belong to it — the camera streams of that vehicle.

Second serial port

Once relay mode is enabled, the Telemetry & Control tab gets a second serial port setting — for the target drone. It must be specified.

Second serial port for the target drone

All streams are visible to both vehicles

Both the relay and the target drone see all video streams. A vehicle's own streams come directly from it, the others — via the cloud: you can see everything without increasing the bitrate or loading the Starlink link.
