Range Extender

RANGE EXTENDER

The accessory that goes the extra mile

Extend the Elios’ reach in challenging environments

The Range Extender enhances signal propagation for Elios 3 in challenging environments like tunnels and enclosed spaces. By placing the antenna closer to the drone, it expends the radio link, ensuring safe and efficient inspections without entering hazardous areas.

Overcome obstacles

Effortlessly deploy the Range Extender anywhere and maintain control of Elios even beyond obstacles.

Focus without interruption

Bring peace of mind to your operations by focusing on the mission without worrying about signal interruptions.

Overcoming signal challenges in complex geometries

In environments such as underground galleries, stacks or mines, signal propagation can be limited by the geometry of the place to inspect and remotely operating a robot becomes difficult.

Optimizing signal placement for extended range

By placing the remote control antennas in a better location, closer to the drone, it is possible to extend the range of the drone.

Practical applications across industries

Underground mine operations

Many underground mine areas are too dangerous for workers to enter, forcing them to stay outside. With the Range Extender deployed in these zones before a flight, Elios pilots gain the additional range needed to make previously impossible missions achievable.

Vertical structure inspections

Deploying the Range Extender in vertical structures, such as stacks or tall storage tanks, significantly improves signal propagation. This allows the pilot to operate the drone further into these complex environments while maintaining reliable control and safety from the ground.

Sewage systems inspections

Deploying the Range Extender into the manhole improves signal propagation, enabling the pilot to operate the drone deeper within the asset while remaining safely outside.
