We build a $20 LoRa Satellite Ground Station and we follow the FossaSat-1 launch
- ncrmro 6y agoLora is super cool, I’ve tested it up to .25 miles with one inside my apartment blocked by trees and or worked great. But the amount of data is very small without doing any sort of buffer. It works great if your sending about three numbers max per transmission (think this sensors temp is 103). When sending text you need to convert to binary or some encoding scheme and fill a buffer or your message will be cut off. I didn’t play around with Lora WAN which is supposed to handle lots of this logic.
- zamadatix 6y agoYeah unless you've got a ton of devices that actually fit the LoRa use case and you plan on leaving them all on all the time I've found good ol' raw radio mode to be much more useful.
