The MICRO from Radionor Communications of Norway is an electronically steered phased-array radio weighing only 22 g, for small drones. It carries data with AES-256 encryption and has an Ethernet port at 10/100 Mbit/s. An omnidirectional antenna and a heatsink come with it. It belongs to the same tactical radio family as the I-BEAM LW and is aimed at government users.

Throughput is up to 2.5 Mbit/s of payload data. That is enough for telemetry, control data and low-resolution video, but not for HD streaming. The unit measures 64 x 36 x 6 mm and is supplied with 9 to 36 V DC. The wide voltage range allows operation from batteries of different cell counts. Against other data links the unit is judged on throughput, weight and encryption.

Which frequencies a radio may use is decided by the national frequency assignment; operation without a matching assignment is not permitted. Equipment may be operated in the EU only in the frequency ranges and power levels approved there. For radios with strong encryption and an authority-oriented design, the export and import situation should also be clarified.

When choosing, the ratio of weight to throughput counts: 22 g at 2.5 Mbit/s is a different profile from an 85 g unit at 15 Mbit/s. The heatsink is part of the delivery because the unit generates heat; it needs airflow or contact with a cool surface. Antenna cables, connectors and the Ethernet port are the mechanical wear points, and key management at both ends must be coordinated.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
