If you haven’t seen it before (no pun intended), SSTV is a way to send images over radio at a low frame rate. Usually, you get about 30 seconds to 2 minutes per frame. The setup uses regular, cheap walkie-talkies for the radio portion on a band that doesn’t require a license. The ESP32-CAM provides the processing and image acquisition. Normally, you don’t think of these radios as having a lot of range, but if the transmitter is high, the range will be very good. The project steals the board out of the radio to save weight. You only fly the PC board, not the entire radio.
