Core Overview
The G20 is a professional-grade drone remote controller launched by Skydroid, based on the Qualcomm 6nm Android platform. It combines high-performance mobile computing with long-range, highly reliable digital video/data transmission, aiming to provide an integrated, high-performance control solution for professional drone applications. Its open Android 13 system supports flexible installation of various ground station software, suitable for professional fields that require beyond-visual-line-of-sight (BVLOS) control and high-definition real-time video, such as surveying, inspection, security, and aerial photography.
Core Technology Advantages
Top-tier Computing & Open Platform
Equipped with Qualcomm's latest 6nm processor, running Android 13, effortlessly hardware-decoding H264/H265 video, providing a smooth operating foundation for various professional ground station software (e.g., Pilot 2, UgCS, etc.).
Ultra-Long-Range Video/Data Link
Utilizes Skydroid's unique digital image control link technology. Under line-of-sight conditions, the theoretical maximum video transmission and remote control distance can reach 30 km, meeting BVLOS operation requirements. Simultaneously, its 2.4GHz/5.8GHz dual-band support with automatic switching provides strong anti-interference capability.
Long Endurance & Fast Charging
Built-in 20000mAh large-capacity battery, providing 6-8 hours of endurance, and supports 36W PD fast charging, significantly reducing charging wait time.
Industrial-Grade Reliability
Wide operating temperature range (-10℃~55℃), provides 16 control channels, paired with the GR01 wide-voltage receiver (7.2-72V), adaptable to complex and harsh outdoor operating environments.
Usage Recommendations
- 30 km is the theoretical maximum under line-of-sight (unobstructed) conditions. The actual effective distance is greatly affected by the environment, regulations, and antenna configuration. Users must have reasonable expectations and conduct tests according to their country's radio management regulations and actual operating environment.
- Its Android 13 system is a core advantage. Customers can flexibly choose and install compatible ground station apps (compatibility must be confirmed) according to their flight controller model, to achieve advanced functions like route planning and mission management.
- Always use a 36W or higher power charger that supports the PD protocol to achieve the nominal fast charging effect. To ensure long-term battery health, periodic full charge/discharge cycles are recommended.
- The accompanying GR01 receiver has an extremely wide power supply voltage range (7.2-72V), allowing it to draw power directly from the drone's main battery, simplifying wiring.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the actual effective control range of the G20 remote controller?
A1: The maximum range is 30 kilometers. However, the actual operational distance is greatly affected by environmental obstacles, electromagnetic interference, local radio regulations, and antenna conditions. Users should conduct sufficient testing within compliant limits in actual operating scenarios to determine a reliable working distance.
Q2: Which drones can the G20 control? How to connect?
A2: The G20 itself is an open control platform. Its compatibility depends on whether the ground station software you install supports your flight controller model (e.g., Pixhawk, CUAV, etc.). Connection is typically achieved through the accompanying GR01 receiver: the receiver is connected to your flight controller via a data port or SBUS, and after pairing with the G20 remote controller, communication is established.
Q3: What are the benefits of the GR01 receiver's wide voltage power supply (7.2-72V)?
A3: This design allows the receiver to directly connect to the drone's main power system (e.g., 6S main battery), eliminating the need for a separate voltage regulator module or battery. This simplifies system integration, reduces overall weight, and improves reliability.
Q4: Is the 6-8 hour endurance the continuous power-on time?
A4: Yes, this endurance time refers to continuous use under typical workload (screen at high brightness, video transmission connected). Actual endurance will vary slightly depending on screen brightness, video transmission signal strength, and background running applications. Support for 36W PD fast charging allows you to quickly recharge during operation intervals.
