Frequently Asked Questions
Question
Answer
How will the tracker affect
the flight time of my UAV?
The UAV Tracker is designed to be light weight at 60g.
You should expect a slight reduction in flight endurance
when your UAV is operating with the Tracker mounted.
Popular UAV models are estimated to show an average
flight time reduction of 10% for UAVs weighing less than
500g and 5% for UAVs weighing between 500g and 1kg,
depending on operating conditions.
The flight time reduction for UAVs weighing more than
1kg is likely negligible.
How accurate is the altitude
of the tracker?
The UAV Tracker currently measures the AMSL of itself
with reference to the WGS84 geoid using satellite
positioning data.
To adjust to your local geoid, such as the
geometric geoid in Singapore, WMGEOID04 for west
Malaysia, or EMGEOID05 for east Malaysia, see your geoid
reference page for the formula to convert between
WGS84 and your local geoid.
CFMS Trackers
What happens when I fly
outside the Area of
Operations applied for and
stated in my Activity Permit?
An incident report will be triggered within CFMS to CAAS
and other stakeholders.
