Summary:Initial tests used a NovAtel (Calgary, Alberta, Canada) OEM3 receiver and GPS-600 antenna. The feed platform and aerostat currently both carry a NovAtel dual-frequency FlexPak-G2L receiver with RT-2 functionality and a GPS-702 antenna. The ground base station uses a NovAtel ProPak-G2 receiver with a GPS-503 antenna. The aerostat was custom-built by Aeros Flightcam (Tarzana, California). Waypoint Consulting Inc. (Calgary, Alberta, Canada) RtkNav software processes the GPS data used in the control system.
