Keep protocol choices outside the physical drum review
The UAV fiber drum is a physical, UAV-mounted payout component. The first selection questions are aircraft model, fiber length, weight, dimensions, speed, mounting, and quantity—not which protocol or video interface the customer uses.

UAV OEMs and integrators can review the mechanical and optical component without taking on an unnecessary system configuration exercise. The customer's own sky-side, ground-side, and protocol choices can be handled separately after the physical fit and test conditions are understood.
A clear product boundary also makes a quote easier to compare. The supplier can respond to the component requirement while the integrator keeps responsibility for the wider aircraft system and its interfaces.
- Select the drum by physical aircraft constraints
- Keep customer protocols and interfaces out of the first quote form
- Confirm the wider system separately after physical fit is defined
