The SBC on the drone needs to be connected via WiFi to your ground station, so adding an external antenna connector may be necessary. I did that on Pi0, and it wasn't too scary. IIRC you need to move one capacitor (this can be tricky, it's an 0402-ish part), and an MMCX connector which you mount on the footprint on the board.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">I use a remote rtl-tcp server running on Pi0 for an AMR meter monitor, with the signal processing part running on another computer.<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">Jacek</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">kw4ep</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif"><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, 19 Nov 2022 at 18:46, Alex Fraser <<a href="mailto:beatnic@comcast.net">beatnic@comcast.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
