[darshan-micro]

Hi Modal Technical support Team,

We want to buy 2 Dev-kit Qualcomm Flight RB5 5G Platform (https://www.modalai.com/collections/qualcomm/products/qualcomm-flight-rb5-5g-platform-reference-drone?variant=39571181109299)

But before the purchase want to confirmation regarding below parameters which are support or not?

a) 5G enabled and controlled drone
b) Supports 5G nano SIM
c) Connectivity Options: Cellular ( 5G ) and Wi-Fi for ubiquitous and long-range connectivity
d) Qualcomm or equivalent onboard processing engine for AI/ML analytics And should support MEC applications
e) Autonomy: Visual Inertial Odometry (VIO), path planning, PX4, GPS-denied navigation, BVLOS, follow me.
f) 360 obstacle avoidance: Depth estimation, obstacle detection, mapping and VOA
g) Payload Capacity – 500g/1 Kg or above
h) GPS or NAVIC enabled
i) Geo Fencing
j) Processing Specs
k) Tracking sensor
l) Image Sensor
m) 5G Modem (n78 band)
n) Ethernet / management port
o) Wi-Fi (2.4/5 GHz)

Thanks in advance.

The Qualcomm Flight RB5 provides reference implementations for many of the capabilities you are looking for. You can find details on the datasheet in our documentation.

This is a development platform though, for software development. If you are not comfortable with drones or developing these types of technologies, it is not recommended to use this type of drone. It is not intended to be a consumer, out of the box, mapping drone. It is intended for our customers to extend, advance or develop those capabilities for their own applications.
