This has inspired me to make my own. I'm gonna use 6 LORA radio's AND a server. Each LORA radio has its own battery but will also run off of USB C continuously. I plan on using my truck battery's and solar panels to keep it charged for now.
our SAR team really needs this lol. We are getting some t-beams but if i put this in a case with a bigger monitor, and we wanted to have a drone connected to it as well. Could you help us with this?
Without the LTE connection through the android phone, could tak server still update individual atak clients with everyone's information just using the raspberry pi and a gotenna connected to it? So that way you don't have to have a phone on a network in the mix. Assuming everyone has their local map data on their individual ATAK device, would that be enough..
Total estimate cost is as follows: - RPi with case and fan: $125 - Omnicharge Omni 20+: $190 - GoTennas (10EA): $900 - BOYT tough case: $120 - Battery pack assortment: around $120-150 depending on brand and features - UPERFECT 7in monitor: $85 - USB C PD 45W charger: $15 - assortment of USB cables and audio cables: $150 - Bluetooth keyboard: $30 - Mavic Pro Fly More Kit: depends, you can find them for $700 to $1K
@@da-b6563 Is there something special with the Gotenna Mesh or can this be done with some other kind of mesh radio like a Beartooth? I ask because I have beartooth mesh radios myself. They allow for audio allong with text and gps sharing. Is there anything specific I need to know in order to get the mesh network up and running?
@@MrtrenchTrucker Beartooth radios do not support mesh networking. But back to the question, the only special thing needed is the respective plugins for either GoTenna or Beartootb which can be obtained on takmaps.com
@@da-b6563 It was funny! Don't even worry about it. Is there a how-to and parts list on ATAK End Users? I'd like to develop something like this! But I only saw your picture of it.
@@scottlutzke2323 I can put one together, didn't really think the guys in their high horses at ATAK End Users were interested in some peasant build lol
looks like something a fed would build. an amateur enthusiast would build the setup in a more intrincate way. not saying you are one but you radiate those vibes

I got a adhoc network running for tak and added mumble. Your video on getting mumble installed and set was a big help thank you.
That the dream man badass -- like it very much
90 hours of flight time? Where do I get dem batts?
That was most certainly a typo lol
@@da-b6563 90 minutes, I assume? 3 batteries at just under 30 mins flight time each
That's exactly what I meant to say, not sure why I said hours lol.
Holy shit, this is coming from a sar guy. This setup is awesome!
our SAR team really needs this lol. We are getting some t-beams but if i put this in a case with a bigger monitor, and we wanted to have a drone connected to it as well. Could you help us with this?
would you be able to help someone set something up like this
Are the gotenna APIs available yet?

Would be SUPER awesome to get a response on this.
@@Just_A_Gun_Guy lmao nigga you aint getting a response
yes . with mesh
That is the purpose of the mesh network. I believe the only reason he has LTE connectivity is for remote comms through Mumble.
how can I get one of these from you ?
Will this work without LTE? Can you have the map downloaded onto ATAK?
Yes
Show me how to make this
Bro, WE NEED AN ATAK DISCORD FOR EVERYONE
You get 90 hours of flight time with that Mavic?? Is that a special military kind?
Super secret squirrel business
I *believe* he meant 90 MINUTES of flight time, as Mavic batteries are only good for 25 mins of flight outside of a lab environment. ;)
What smartwatch is that? What is the best?
My watch? That's a Garmin Fenix 3. It's pretty old nowadays, but it gets the job done
Can you do all of this off grid?
Certwin things can be done off grid. GoTennas allow phones to communicate with each other over ATAK completely off-grid
Of course, the capability is limited to only position updates, messages and small markers
Do you have a video of how to do it with your kit and no cell or wifi. On how to set it up
Look at the GoTenna videos in the channel
#EPIC !!!!
What OS are you running on the PI? also, What Gotennas? Regular or the Pro ones? Last question is total estimate cost?
For this video I'm running Raspbian, but my main SD card runs Ubuntu 20.04. GoTennas are the Mesh models, they get the job done.
Total estimate cost is as follows:
- RPi with case and fan: $125
- Omnicharge Omni 20+: $190
- GoTennas (10EA): $900
- BOYT tough case: $120
- Battery pack assortment: around $120-150 depending on brand and features
- UPERFECT 7in monitor: $85
- USB C PD 45W charger: $15
- assortment of USB cables and audio cables: $150
- Bluetooth keyboard: $30
- Mavic Pro Fly More Kit: depends, you can find them for $700 to $1K
Around $1,800 without the drone

LoL... just kidding, your set up is AWESOME!

Can you send the plug in link for gotenna to work on atak?
If you're a military or government employee, you can grab it from takmaps.com by creating an account
@@da-b6563 and if you are not military then what
@@chriswalker7939 then I'm afraid there's no other legal way of obtaining the plugin.
Possibly a dumb question, but why 10 GoTennas?
Because like I mentioned, this kit has more than one person in mind
@@da-b6563 Fair. I couldn't imagine you planned to run 9 of them out of batteries or break them lol.
@@wilsongulick4608 yeah I mean...you need a basic understanding of the reason for deploying a mesh network before you ask a question like that
