Fly&Drive Antennas
< products
AvL's unique Fly&Drive Antennas provide the maximum versatility for satellite communication users that desire the flexibility of both a vehicle-mounted antenna and the additional portability of a flyaway in one motorized antenna system. Available in both SNG and Mobile VSAT configurations, the highly-robust but light-weight systems are packaged in three containers, each that meets air freight requirements for weight and size allowing the system to be transported anywhere you can fly or drive.

Select an aperture from the menu to the left to view our available models.

AvL Fly&Drive Antennas offer the following features and benefits:
  • Use as a FlyAway or DriveAway
  • Available in either SNG or VSAT configurations
  • Roof mounting kit quickly converts vehicle into SNG or broadband vehicle in 30 minutes
  • Transportation pallet and roof/ground mounting kit create a light but stiff frame for mounting on either vehicle roof or to use as a ground unit
  • Once installed, reflector deploys and stows on command
  • Auto-stow allows transport on vehicle - no need to pack and unpack
  • Fully-automatic satellite locator with GPS and flux-gate optional or auto-acquisition controller
  • Light-weight cover protects the system during transportation

  • The following product features are offered exclusively by AvL Technologies:

    Auto-Acquisition Controllers
  • AvL one button satellite acquisition antenna control systems provide fully automatic, modem independent, acquisition and tracking capabilities for rapid deployment. Satellites are typically acquired in less than five minutes.

  • Thanks to AvL's exclusive auto-acquisition technology, our products can be reliably operated by non-technical operators without any requirement for external testing equipment or laptop.

  • Zero Backlash Roto-Lok® Cable Drive Positioners
  • The most important specification for a satellite antenna, particularly an auto-acquisition antenna, is pointing accuracy and the stability and stiffness of the positioner under the most extreme environmental conditions.

  • AvL's patented Roto-Lok® cable drive technology provides the ultimate in precision and stiffness compared to geared drive systems and, unlike most other systems, is free of backlash. It is a maintenance-free dry mechanism able to operate in a very wide range of difficult and hazardous conditions without degradation.
