4. Repeat steps above for each your Microdrones vehicle.

Note that if both uplink and downlink are connected only uplink will be active because the Microdrones stops
telemetry sending after reception of commands via uplink. The downlink can be activated either by issuing "A-
RM" command or by disconnecting uplink and re-inserting a battery.

1.2
