Airplane mode is designed for manually disconnect the air unit and controller. Connection breaks when you turn it on.

Herelink encrypt over the air uses aes-128-ctr
Herelink Ethernet
I’m trying to get ethernet passthrough working. I’m running on the Beta Channel, SRU01200616 on the ground unit and the corresponding version on the airside.
I understand an ethernet adapter with a R8152/8153 chip is required, I have an ANKER A7610011 and a Cable Matters 202023-BLK for testing. Both use the correct chip according to the Amazon comments, although it's very hard to get the information directly from the manufactures.
On the ground side, I have a generic OTG adapter and have tested it with a USB stick. On the airside I have an OTG charging passthrough cable, this allows to power the adapter (and the airside, and cube, I’m not sure if that is a good idea).
I understand with an adapter on both ends it should be a transparent link but I can't seem to get it working.
It does have to be said that I am a complete beginner with regard to networking stuff such as this.
The next trick is getting ADB access to confirm (GCS)
Here is a new bootimage for the GCS unit to make the R8152/53 detect. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MGFAqC1zXrdnO2yEGhaigW-xktIx2cHj/view?usp=sharing 2 (GCS unit bootimage with R8152)
the stock image includes
AX8817X
AX88179_178A
NET1080
to update the boot image via USB (i assume you have ADB access already/developer mode)
adb reboot bootloader fastboot flash boot boot.img fastboot reboot
Next, we enable ADB via TCPIP, but first, we need to enable this via USB
adb shell setprop persist.adb.tcp.port 5555 reboot
then after the reboot, get the IP of the GCS unit (eg 10.0.0.99)
adb connect 10.0.0.99 adb shell
you should get the shell again
do a
ifconfig
and check if eth0 exists
Now verify we can ADB into the air unit
once you have ADB to the GCS unit, power on the air unit and do a
adb shell (gets you into the gcs unit) adb connect 192.168.0.10 adb -s 192.168.0.10:5555 shell
this should now get you into the air unit.
Next
try running a
/bin/busybox brctl show
under interfaces, you should see vxlan1 and eth0
optimus:/ $ /bin/busybox brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces br-vxlan 8000.00e04c360345 no vxlan1 eth0
also, run
ping 192.168.144.10 ping 192.168.144.11
these are the bridge endpoint IP’s
during testing, make sure the screen stays on there GCS unit, otherwise, power-saving features limit background data flow (A most likely setting I have not found yet)
I've just confirmed that this is working ok. one possible caveat. if your home network is using 192.168.0.x, things may not work.
The power outputs by selecting region are :
- USA : 23dB = 200mW
- Europe : 20dB = 100mW
- China : 20dB = 100mW
- Japan : 20dB = 100mW
When using Dual Streaming mode, the Herelink can get quite warm, for best results, please install a fan on the top using the provided screws, rubber rings, washers and nuts in the installation pack.
*Fan is not provided The fan showing in the video obtained from Digi-Key URL: https://www.digikey.hk/product-detail/en/mechatronics-fan-group/MR3010E12B-RSR/1570-1346-ND/7606131
*Please prepare a pair of tweezers and a M1.6 nut driver for installation.
Q: When connecting the Herelink to computer to update it with flasher, the following message pops up:

A: The error message tells that the adb is running already. It can be fixed with the following command:
adb kill-server
***Enabling this feature will get Herelink very hot. Please install *cooling fan* on Herelink otherwise it will be overheated soon.***
- 1.Install ADB and Google drivers
- 2.Then Setting-up the device for ADB
Steps are same as step 1 and 2 in
Generate a bug report instruction:
Connect controller unit to computer via ADB and run
adb shell setprop persist.multiple.videostream true adb reboot
Then repeat on air unit. Both of them need the setprop set.
The video stream will be available at these 2 addresses
rtsp://(wifiIPongcs):8554/fpv_stream rtsp://(wifiIPongcs):8554/fpv_stream1
- 1.Ensure something valid is connected to HDMI1 also, otherwise HDMI2 will not work.
- 2.
To disable and restore the setting, connect the unit to computer via ADB and run
adb shell setprop persist.multiple.videostream false adb reboot
