"Baba Yaga" is in touch.. ZSU began to use a heavy drone to move 2-fpv and possibly (4), a large drone works as a repeater, this allows to increase the communication range with the pilot's console and destroy occupiers at large distances.

Maybe? That's kinda why I wanted more info.

I mean, not the big one, but maybe one of the little FPV ones (sans armament, obviously). These things are apparently made mostly of consumer-off-the-shelf parts and assembled by volunteers, after all. Besides, I've been thinking of getting into DIY drone flying as a hobby anyway, and I figured anything good enough for combat in Ukraine would have a pretty good price/capability ratio.
