This is Frank from SIYI Technology, a company focus on making advanced and reliable links for commercial drones especially coming with open-source platforms.
There is a new model which we would like to share with the community.
Model Name: HM30
Description: A brand new FPV system comes with radio control, datalink telemetry, and 1080p 60fps 150ms FPV image transmission. Sold with both air unit and ground unit, and recording FPV camera in the advanced combo.
Delivery Date: Not late than October, 2021.
Attached product details in pictures.
Welcome to ask me directly anything about the system.
I am a consultant assessing and recommending uav configurations (mostly for facility security and monitoring).
How many units can operate in the same area without interfering with one another?
What frequency/modulation/tx power does the system use? In an urban environment, what is the range of smooth usable video streaming? (720i @ 10fps or so).
At this moment, HM30 supports max 5 frequency channels without interfering to each one, and it is suggested not to use more than 3 channels in a crowding environment.
Frequency is at 5.8 GHz band, DFHS, less than 27 dBm.
In urban environment, the range should be between 5 to 10 kilometers, ground to air, depending the exact interference strength there.
For purchasing, please save the HM30 link in SIYI Official AliExpress.
As long as it is ready for shipping, we will add stock to the link immediately.
What do you suggest on labeling the transmitter and the receiver? Please advice.
Yes, the air unit is sold with the ground unit and is also sold separately.
The binding process is quite similar to the model MK15. And the steps will be listed in HM30 user manual a bit later.
The difference is that HM30 starts binding in its OLED screen instead of in the SIYI TX app.
I’m very interested in this product, the power to groud station side can be provided tia USB or the telemetry port, or it is only via the xt30 connector? thanks
A long-range full HD FPV system with remote control, telemetry, and OSD built-in.
What frequency bands do HM30 use?
5100 to 5825 MHz, centering at 5550 MHz.
Can I replace the antennas on HM30?
Yes, of course.
Both the ground unit and the air unit are using SMA connectors for antenna installation.
SIYI original antennas are:
4 x Omni Antennas (2 for ground, 2 for air)
2 x Directional Antennas (for ground)
SIYI sold-alone antenna choices are:
17 dB High Gain Antenna
Lollipop Antenna
How much transmitting power in HM30?
Around 25 dBm / 320 mW
What is the effective range?
The latest record is 50 km.
With different antenna setup and in different wireless mode, the range limit is different.

What flight controllers are compatible with HM30?
To use the OSD overlay, the flight controllers should support Mavlink output, such as
Ardupilot, PX4, INAV, etc.
If the OSD overlay is not necessary, then any flight controllers are compatible.
What remote controllers are compatible with HM30?
Any remote controllers which support S.Bus or PPM output.
What interfaces to output video stream on HM30 ground unit?
USB-C
LAN (UDP telemetry simultaneously)
Internal WiFi (UDP telemetry simultaneously)
USB WiFi (UDP telemetry simultaneously)
Does HM30 ground unit support HDMI output?
Yes but with a sold-alone LAN-HDMI Output Converter Module.
Does HM30 air unit support HDMI input?
Yes but with a sold-alone HDMI-Ethernet Input Converter Module.
What are the dimensions and the weight of the HM30 unit and the FPV camera?
Air Unit
Dimension: 70x55x24 mm (antenna detached, fan height included)
Weight: 74 g (antenna detached)
FPV Camera
Dimension: 42x42x25 mm
Weight: 23 g
What kind of models are the most suitable for HM30?
FPV wings and multirotors
Hello @SIYI, thanks for the HM30. I am having trouble getting RC data on the GCS. I have an SBUS compatible receiver connected to the HM30 transmitter. ON the OLED screen I can see the following: [RC Mode: SBUS <–> ] therefore, I assume the HM30 system sees my RC transmitter.
I connected the Air Unit SBUS out to my Pixhawk. I expected this to work. However, I can’t seem to get an radio data on my FC. Am I doing something wrong? Am I trying to do something that the HM30 soes not support?
Thank you for the swift response. Hopefully the following images make my inquiry more clear.
I can see through the OLED screen that my RC is transmitting SBUS data and the HM 30 transmitter can see it.
I connected my air unit telemetry and SBUS port to my pixhawk. I can receive telemetry but there is no SBUS data being received by the air unit (or being transmitted to my FC). Attached is a picture and schematic of the wiring. In the picture below, the red wire is SBUS and the yellow wire is GND. I’ve basically eliminated every other source of the issue and I am certain it has something to do with the air unit. Any help would be appreciated.
Does this system allow for ethernet tunnel? if i connect a pc to the ethernet port on ground unit and another pc to the air unit ethernet port (i think it is called ip camera port on air unit) can i see all the 192.168.144.xxx network?
