Inspired Flight IF1200A - Wirelessly Connect a Hand Controller to a Ground Control Station

IF1200A Pilot Operating Handbook Appendix
Wirelessly Connect a Hand Controller to a Ground Control Station
This section describes how to wirelessly connect a hand controller, (in this case, a HereLink
Blue or Black), to a Ground Control Station (GCS). The GCS is typically a laptop or tablet that
has one of the following ground station software applications installed:
Ground Station Software
● QGroundControl
● Mission Planner
Two methods to wirelessly connect between a hand controller and GCS:
● Use the Wireless Hotspot in the HereLink Hand Control
(applies to QGround Control and Mission Planner)
● Connect HereLink to Mission Planner Through a WiFi Network
● Connect HereLink and QGroundControl Through a WiFi Network
In both connection scenarios, the GCS must be set up so that either the HereLink hotspot, or a
WiFi network, are listed in the device’s Network & Internet Settings.
Note: When setting up a wireless connection between a HereLink hand control and a
GCS with Mission Planner installed, the Remote Port (in Mission Planner), must have one
of two settings:
● Connecting to the HereLink hotspot: 14450
● Connecting via a common WiFi network: 14552
