Drone Satellite Host and Relay drone system render
CONSUMER FPV PRE-LAUNCH

The first FPV drone you can fly past buildings.

Drone Satellite Consumer uses NIRO's patented Host + Relay technology to keep your FPV feed connected when walls, trees, ridges, and job-site geometry would normally end the flight.

US Patent 12,252,279 B1 Atlanta, Georgia FAA-registered platform workstream
THE PAIN

FPV signal loss is not a battery problem. It is a geometry problem.

Most FPV flights fail when the pilot, drone, and obstacle line up the wrong way. A building corner, a tree line, or a ridge can turn a perfect shot into static. More battery does not solve that. A bigger drone does not solve that. You need a second airborne point in the right place.

How the relay path works Pilot → Relay → Host

The Relay is positioned between the pilot and Host to preserve a usable signal path around obstacles. Range and flight footage will be published after controlled prototype validation.

PATENTED SOLUTION

Same patented tech. New direct-purchase lane.

The commercial Drone Satellite page stays focused on leasing, enterprise pilots, defense, and industrial integrations. This page is the consumer FPV lane: individual buyers, creator teams, and working pilots who want a Host + Relay kit they can purchase outright.

  • Host FPV drone carries the camera and flight path.
  • Relay drone positions as an airborne range extender.
  • Docking interface keeps the platform expandable as validation matures.
USE CASES

Built for pilots who lose jobs when the feed drops.

Real estate

Orbit buildings, lots, and rooftops with fewer dead zones around corners.

Cinematic FPV

Hold a live shot through campus routes, venue exteriors, and tree-lined paths.

Inspection

Keep the signal alive around structures, towers, warehouses, farms, and job sites.

Civilian SAR

Support volunteer search patterns where terrain blocks direct pilot-to-drone signal.

Urban exploration

Fly complex visual routes while staying inside legal and property boundaries.

PRE-LAUNCH SPEC STRIP

FAQ

Kickstarter-style questions

Is this the same as the commercial Drone Satellite?

It uses the same patented Host + Relay technology platform. The commercial lane is for lease/custom enterprise integrations. The consumer lane is for direct purchase by individual FPV buyers and small teams.

Does this let me ignore FAA rules?

No. Pilots are responsible for FAA rules, airspace, Remote ID requirements, local restrictions, permissions, and safe operation.

Are specs or prices final?

No. This is a free pre-launch interest list, not a reservation or preorder. Final weight, battery, range, pricing, and delivery details depend on prototype validation and the eventual launch configuration.

Why not just buy DJI FPV or Avata 2?

Those are excellent FPV drones. Drone Satellite is positioned as a premium patented relay system for pilots whose work depends on keeping the feed connected around obstacles.
