Two radios that send and receive data with high throughput and data integrity. The radios should be transparent to both the control system and base station as if it were a physical connection. This “radio as a wire” concept allows interchangeability of various radios using different wireless technologies.
If one radio technology does not meet our requirements, the “radio as a wire” concept allows us to drop in another solution without disrupting the data interfaces.

securely attach the aerial radio and power systems to UAV C. provide protection to onboard components in the event of a hard landing. add minimal weight to the system. add minimal size to the system. allow for easy access to components.
Based on the aerial radio, power system, and airframe interface concepts explored, a mounting system well within our size and weight constraints is possible.
