    “The DRK — Drone Repeater Kit — with two main components, the Mini Antenna Rack (MAR) and a Repeater Unit (RTK) is RSI Europe’s answer to this problem set. It is not a clean-sheet design but the product of iteration on Ukrainian operator feedback. A few features stand out as direct responses to known field requirements.”

    “RSI Europe’s initial answer was the RISE-1 cRX, a compact electronic initiator designed for drone use. Pupelis describes it honestly as a first-generation product: a real improvement over field improvisation, and a foundation to build on.”
