Thank you for sharign, good job.

A step in the right direction if you expect licensed full scale pilots to easily interface with UAS industry. The modern small drone controls seems to be designed by Gamers not actual pilots.

[@debinray1668]

We have some sexy handhelds coming out soon. The gamer designed ones are usually just 'windows gamepads' and don't have the robust radio control interface we offer and our clients need. Our touchscreen handhelds will have it all.

Nice! Can you make a video on the tactical stand?

[@DesertRotor]

Hello! Thank you for that great suggestion. We will work on getting a video on the tactical stand. It's a great accessory to the GCS for quick deployment.

[@Scot.Hathaway]

How many nits is the light output on your displays? Are they daylight readable?

[@DesertRotor]

Hi Scot, the 19in HD Widescreen display are 1200 NITs, they are sunlight viewable and look great even under the Arizona sun! Let us know if you have any other questions!

Can the units be configured for left handed pilots?

[@DesertRotor]

Potentially yes, if you go with a smaller joystick for the left hand, you are welcome to contact us through our website. Thanks.

[@mohammadaliqasimi7204]

Please tell the price and high altitude and how many km we can control far away

[@DesertRotor]

Hello, our GCS designs can interface with virtually any radio & autopilot system. Altitude/Range will depend on what radio systems you go with inside the GCS. We have clients hitting 50KM using 30Watt RF Amplifiers on Microhard MIMO radios. We also have simple radio systems that can get you up to 20KM. It really depends as range is unlimited if you are using the LTE Sky-Drones or SkyHopper radios. GCS pricing starts at $6,600 US dollars. Website www.desertrotor.com has all the info. Thanks!

[@DesertRotor]

Hello! We've have sold a few of your RucPac backpack attachment to our clients :) We have them in some of our marketing pictures on our website. Great product, thanks!

@@DesertRotor super glad to hear this!

How do you close it?

[@DesertRotor]

The joystick drops down into a compartment and then you can just close the lid

[@uniqueballard7996]

How much for a build like this

[@debinray1668]

Pricing disclosed on the website. It really depends on the configuration and options. We offer reseller and new client discounts!
