The Russians recovered a Ukrainian “Darts” mid-range strike UAV equipped with a directional patch antenna for the video transmitter.
A 3D-printed, two-axis pan-tilt device uses two servo-controlled EMAX ES08MDII metal gearboxes to rotate and tilt the antenna towards the operator.

A Ukrainian station for FPV drone control has directional antennas that can be moved by remote controlled servos.
Control stations are safely separated from the operator.
Directional antennas send and receive signals in one direction, as they form a narrow lobe (signal pattern).
