PYO's AUV-03 'Sentinel' Data-Linked UAV

---

The PYO's AUV-03 'Sentinel' is a fully data-linked UAV with autonomous flight, target engagement, and real-time video feed.
Its compact radar and high-res HUD enable target tracking, while the diesel engine ensures long endurance and mission flexibility.
Designed for precision, it blends remote control and automation for peak efficiency.

---

Autonomous Flight:
• Fully autonomous with waypoint navigation and Auto-landing.
  
• Executes attack commands and returns to preset path after mission.
  
  Data Link System:
• Uses 'PYOs Tactical Data Link III' for real-time communication up to 20 km.
  
• Supports target designation, UAV control, and system integration.
  
• Includes 'AL' (Auto-Landing) for return to control terminal.
  
• 'LDN' (Land Now) enables immediate landing anywhere.
  
  Remote Control:
  
  
• Operates via 'PYOs Tactical Data Link III' or remote camera control.
  
• Streams real-time high-res HUD with target and ally positions.
  
  Radar & Targeting:
  
  
• Small radar, 14.4°x28.8° detection area (pitch -14.4°).
  
• Auto-detects and reports targets to connected terminals.
  
  Camera & HUD:
  
  
• Stabilized zoom camera for precise observation.
  
• Advanced HUD showing real-time target and ally positions.
  
  Fuel & Range:
  
  
• Diesel-powered, 180L tank, up to 50 km flight or long hovering.
  
• Max speed: 110 km/h.
  
  Customization & Modularity:
  
  
• Carries two radar-guided missiles, fired together (due to mass balance).
  
• 800 kg max payload for mission-specific mods.
  
• Easily customized for roles like rescue, firefighting, and transport.

• Start the UAV:
  After spawning, turn on the system switch on the left rear panel. The UAV will auto-start and hover at low altitude, awaiting commands.
  
• Activate Data Link Terminal:
  Flip the switch to power the Data Link terminal. Click the ‘>’ button (top left) to open the menu and select UAV for control.
  - Click on the map to mark a coordinate.
  - Click opt for options, adjust waypoint height with alt, then press add to create a waypoint.
  - Waypoints are saved on the UAV, so they won't be lost if the link is interrupted.
  
• Targeting & Attack:
  When the UAV detects a target, a red diamond appears on the map. Use the camera to confirm.
  - To attack, select the target on the map and press atk. The UAV will plan a strike, attack, then return to waypoint mode.
  
• Return to Control Terminal:
  To recall the UAV, add a waypoint a few hundred meters behind your deck and activate AL (Auto-Landing).
  - Directly activating AL is possible but has a low return altitude, increasing the risk of collisions.

• W/S: Move the UAV forward/backward (when there are no active tasks).
  
• A/D: Rotate the UAV left/right (when there are no active tasks).
  
• Arrow Keys (Up/Down/Left/Right): Control the camera rotation.
  
• 1: Reset the camera to its default position.
  
• 2/3: Zoom the camera in and out.
  
• 4/5: Adjust the hover height (when there are no active tasks).
  
• 6: Toggle the camera stabilizer on/off.
  
• Space: Weapon Trigger Override.

• Adjust Weapon Range: Go to 'PYO's AUV03 Main' microcontroller and set atk range (meters).
  
• Change Weapon Elevation: Adjust aim offset vertical (circles) in 'PYO's AUV03 Main'.
  
• Disable Vertical Aiming: Toggle aim pit in 'PYO's AUV03 Main'.
  
• Faster Fire, Less Accuracy: Increase aim ready threshold (circles) in 'PYO's AUV03 Main'.
  
• More Attacks Per Run: Increase ammo in 'PYO's Drone'. Resets after AL (Auto-Landing).
  
• Auto-Scan While Idle: Toggle scan when idle in 'PYO's AUV03 Main'.
  
• Switch to GPS Missiles: Send attack coordinates from 'PYO's AUV03 Main' to hardpoints (Ch. 27-29).
  
• Fire Weapons Separately: Use Flare launcher passthrough for the second hardpoint. Set ammo to 2.
  
• Data Link Sensor Placement: Must be under the deck, at center or 0.5m forward.
  
• Other Customizations:
  - Flight Control: 'PYO's AUV03 Main'
  - Data Link: 'PYO's Data Link AUV03 Build'
  - HUD: 'Pyo's HUD/HMD 2025 AUV03 Build'
  - Engine: 'PYO's AUV03 Engine Control'

• No Terrain Following or Obstacle Avoidance: Missing a laser distance sensor due to microcontroller size limits.
  
• No Fuel/Power Display: Microcontroller size constraints prevent fuel or power level indicators.
  
• Camera Stabilizer Limits: Lacks a forward laser distance sensor, so no true "coordinate anchor." Uses a fixed aiming point at 20m altitude instead.

Special thank FN-20 for Euler calculation, V.S.C & CVM for help with testing.
If you have any suggestions or found any bugs, tell me please.
Hope you all enjoy it.
