Easy to install, completely autonomous...

The transmitter may be placed inside or outside the fuselage.

The transmitter has its own Lithium Polymer battery. Therefore, no connections are needed.

Fasten the transmitter with Velcro, foam, or an elastic band, and fly with complete peace of mind...

Icare works on a frequency of 869 Mhz. Therefore, it does not disturb the frequencies allocated to model airplanes and is completely compatible with all remote control units.

Compact and lightweight...

The Icare transmitter is small (48 x 35 x 14 mm) and only weighs 32 grams.

An example of a screenshot when looking for your model...

The red arrow points directly towards the model. The distance between you and the model is shown on top of the arrow.

Hold the receiver horizontally and move in the direction of the arrow. Whatever the receiver’s direction, the arrow always points towards the model thanks to the integrated electronic compass.

Keep moving until the distance shows just a few meters... your model is there!

Map your flight field, define geographic alerts, etc.

With a few clicks, create a map of your flight field on Google Earth (roads, rivers, hangars, etc.) and then load it on to the Icare receiver.

You are able to see your model's progress in relation to the features which have been mapped.

You are also able to define alerts in the case of the model straying from the flight field, flying over a road, or a lake, etc.

And, all of this free of charge...!

Ultra-sensitive GPS, wide radio range, telemetry...

The Icare's radio range is greater than 10 kilometres when the model is in the air and 3 kilometres when it is on the ground, which enables you to know the model’s position at all times, regardless of how far away it is... 

The ultra-sensitive GPS enables Icare to determine its position even in a forest when the model is upside-down...

15 hours autonomy leaves you plenty of time to find your model...

During the flight, you have access to information about altitude, speed, climbing speed, etc.... a genuine telemetry system for model airplanes...

View your flight in 3D...

The model’s route is saved in full by the Icare receiver.

In the evening, you are able to connect the Icare receiver to your PC’s USB port and view all your flights in 3D on Google Earth...

It’s magic!!!

For all models...

Soaring, engine-powered flight, free flight,... the Icare aeromodelling GPS system is adapted to all models...
