BUYING GUIDE · SKYDROID H30

Controller, receiver
or complete kit?

Choose the H30 package around the equipment you already own and the system you are building.

The H30 is the handheld ground station. The R30 is the receiver described alongside it in the supplier listing. Buying one component and buying both serve different needs—start by deciding which end of the link you need.

01 / CHOOSE YOUR PACKAGE

Three options, three starting points

The catalog uses the following package names. A combined controller-and-receiver option supplies both main components; its name alone does not establish every accessory in the box.

Listed price range · USD$569.00 – $1,699.00

This range covers the listing’s available options. It is not a price for every package. Request a quotation for your chosen configuration and quantity.

02 / KNOW WHICH COMPONENT A SPEC DESCRIBES

The screen belongs to the controller

The H30’s display, Android platform and storage describe the handheld unit. They are not features of a receiver-only purchase. The supplier lists these component specifications:

H30 display
10.1-inch touchscreen · 1920 × 1200
H30 platform
Qualcomm 660 · Android 9
H30 memory / storage
4 GB / 64 GB
Listed working frequencies
1.4 GHz / 2.4 GHz
H30 net weight, supplier listing
2.24 kg
R30 net weight, supplier listing
65 g

Weights above follow the supplier’s current component listing. Confirm the supplied revision if weight is critical; these figures do not describe a packed shipment.

03 / CHECK THE WHOLE SYSTEM

What to check before choosing an H30

Flight controller and software

Provide the flight-controller model, firmware and ground-station app you intend to use. Android availability alone does not establish that your exact app, telemetry functions and firmware work together.

Camera and video interface

The Skydroid manual describes network video connections on the R30. Send the camera or gimbal model and its video output. An HDMI connection on the handheld controller does not establish compatibility with an HDMI-only camera on the vehicle.

Receiver connections

The manual identifies serial, network and SBUS interfaces on the R30. Match the functions you need to the receiver’s documented connections, power requirements and the correct cable set. A connector that looks similar is not enough to confirm a match.

Hardware and operating setup

Include the intended country, existing hardware revision and planned installation. Confirm the supplied radio version and describe the working distance and environment you need assessed, rather than selecting from a headline range alone.

04 / COMMON BUYING QUESTIONS

Resolve these before ordering

Does “complete kit” include a camera or flight controller?

The listed option is “Radio Controller + Receiver.” Treat that as the package name and ask for its packing list. A camera, flight controller or any other accessory should only be treated as included when it is explicitly itemized in the quotation.

Can I replace just the controller or receiver?

A single-component purchase is worth considering when you already own the other component. Send its model, revision and firmware details first so the pairing can be checked for your specific hardware.

Which package should I ask about for a new system?

Start with the controller-and-receiver option if you need both. Then confirm camera integration, flight-controller connections and accessories. Selecting both main components is only one part of specifying the installation.

05 / PREPARE YOUR INQUIRY

Send the configuration you need

These details help us review the package and prepare a quotation:

  • Flight controller, ground-station app and camera or gimbal model.
  • Required connections and any accessories to include.
