BRINC, a startup that specializes in building Drone as First Responder (DFR) aircraft, has just announced its latest product, called Guardian, which is equipped with an onboard Starlink receiver. This removes the signal limitation that the average drone has, which is required to be within signal distance of its base station or within range of cellular or other terrestrial signals. The company says that this gives the Guardian a much longer range — eight miles, instead of the usual three — from its base station, and is only limited by its battery power, not by its connection to its operator.
