STATUS:
CAMPAIGN CLOSED. 503K UAH (12K USD) spent on purchasing control transmitters and receivers on non-standard frequencies (illustrative photo).
Bank receipts are in the files.
Special thanks to everyone who contributed to this critical fundraiser. The enemy is massing resources in our sector, including high-power EW systems in large quantities.
NEED:
Enemy EW (Electronic Warfare) systems affect drone control (the "pilot-drone" link), making the drone uncontrollable; this is how we lose a portion of our assets. A Ukrainian manufacturer offers non-standard frequencies "invisible" to EW, which means saving munitions — more losses for the enemy — better operational efficiency.
The kit looks like this: the pilot has a transmitter (TX), the drone has a receiver (RX). A control receiver is needed for every drone, while transmitters are needed in quantities of a few units per several hundred receivers.
INITIAL GOAL:
550K UAH (13K USD)

MORE ABOUT COMPONENTS AND EQUIPMENT
This is our largest expense and critical need, the details of which we discuss only with verified partners. Beyond tuning drones and building signal amplifiers, we experiment with digital tech, assemble custom battery packs (to maximize flight time), manufacture fiber-optic coils, and run our own 3D printing shop to relentlessly upgrade our gear.
Our main bottlenecks are operating hand-to-mouth due to chronic underfunding, cash flow gaps, and typical growing pains. It’s exactly like a business. Except we don’t sell our product — we destroy it all with our own ruthless, skilled hands.
