Radio frequencies

Typically SkyProwler is connected to the operator/ground station by 3 separate radiolinks:

• Radio control signal & Telemetry radio signal

• Video signal

In addition SkyProwler (like many modern UAVs) also has a satellite link to the Global Position System (GPS) which utilizes frequencies of around 1.2 GHz and 1.6 Ghz.

These radio signals operate (and have to operate) on different frequencies. The chosen frequency is a compromise between 3 factors:

• Achieving the best range and signal stability

• Avoiding interference between the different radio signals

• Legal requirements, which depend on the country/area the UAV is operated in

SkyProwler 2 uses the 915 MHz band for both control and telemetry signal, via the Team Black Sheep Crossfire long range radio system. The video signal is digital 5.8Ghz.

If you prefer, we can alternatively equip SkyProwler with a 2.4Ghz control link (FrSky), separate 915 or 433 MHz telemetry link and either an analogue 5.8Ghz or the digital 5.8Ghz video link. Please let us know after ordering.

Below is a table (without guarantee) of permitted telemetry radio signal frequencies:
