Telemetry and ground link

Most telemetry gives you a filtered summary of a vehicle you cannot reach. We build links that give you the vehicle itself — every subsystem addressable from the ground station as though the bus ran through your desk.

The page claims bench-grade access to a flying vehicle. It needs one image that makes that concrete.

Live subsystem access

Conventional telemetry publishes a chosen set of fields at a fixed rate. It tells you that something happened; it rarely tells you what. The moment you need a register nobody thought to publish before take-off, the flight is already over.

We build the transport that extends a vehicle's internal buses to the ground station over the radio link, so a subsystem is addressable in flight exactly as it is on the bench. Not a telemetry stream describing the vehicle — the vehicle's own interfaces, live.

Engineers use the tools they already have, against the real hardware, while it is flying. No separate flight and bench workflow, and no test campaign that only reproduces the fault on the ground.

What it changes

  • Diagnose in flight, not after it. Interrogate a misbehaving subsystem while it is misbehaving, instead of inferring the cause from a log after recovery.
  • One workflow. The same tools, scripts and parameter sets on the bench and in the air.
  • Shorter test campaigns. Faults that take several sorties to characterise through conventional telemetry are often resolved within one.
  • Full-rate capture where it matters, with bandwidth allocated deliberately rather than by whatever the autopilot chose to publish.

The link underneath it

Live access is only as good as the link underneath it, so we design that too: link budgets against the real terrain and range, antenna placement and pattern, contention and interference behaviour, and graceful degradation — what is still guaranteed to arrive when the channel is poor. Command integrity and authentication are part of that design, not an afterthought.

What you get

  • Bench-grade access to every subsystem while the vehicle is flying
  • Fault diagnosis during the event rather than reconstruction afterwards
  • A link with defined behaviour at the edge of its range
