AUXILIARY LIGHTING PLACEMENT
The maximum weight of all auxiliary equipment that
can be attached to airframe is 75 grams and must be
securely attached to not cause any vibration.
Place the auxiliary light(s) toward the vehicle’s natural
CoG. This will result in the least amount of degradation
to flight performance.
The Center of Gravity (CoG) of Teal 2 is essentially dead
center of the vehicle (the intersection point of the two
(2) lines drawn between the centers of diagonally
opposite props). The closer the weight distribution of
the attached equipment maintains the original CoG,
the better the aircraft will perform.
Care should be taken to avoid physical or
electromagnetic interference. Do not place items
containing metal near the magnetometer, located at
the rear tip of the vehicle.
Spin the props to make sure that they do not come in
contact with the desired location of the mounted
light(s). Maintain at least 10mm clearance from tips of
the prop blades to the light(s). Select the location of
the light(s) while the gimbal protective cover is
installed on the drone to ensure the added attachment
does not interfere with the cover.
Verify that the gimbal operation, gimbal cover, battery
pack, propeller assemblies, and rotor arms are not
mechanically impeded by the attached lights.
TEAL 2 / TAC PAIRING
Each Teal 2 and TAC are paired (authenticated and
bound to one another) over a secure wireless network.
Once complete, all communicated data is encrypted
between the Teal 2 and TAC over the AES-256
encrypted wireless network.
Only one wireless modem link is available between the
TAC and the Teal 2. Both the Teal 2 and the TAC use the
Microhard Pico series pDDLxxxx-AES256 modem. The
Microhard Pico modems support Advanced Encryption
Standard with block lengths of 256 bits.
Radio encryption is managed through the TAC radio’s
user interface (UI). Access to the radio’s configuration
interface is secured through the QGroundControl
application with a valid account name and password.
Once logged into the TAC, the user selects a unique
network ID to allow linking to and pairing with the Teal
2. Once joined to the same network, the wireless
network forms a wireless encrypted closed network
between the air and ground systems.
