Zusammenfassung:Wireless systems and methods are disclosed for establishing a continuous real-time data link communicating flight data of a small UAV to a first smart device over a wireless network. An airborne wireless sensor system is adapted to be removably attached to the UAV. The airborne wireless sensor system has a sensor module for sensing UAV flight data, a communication module for establishing the wireless data-link network and transmitting the sensed UAV flight data the smart device. The smart device may have a software application which permits the user to define data formats for display which may them be communicated to the airborne sensor system to use in building the data pages transmitted to the smart device. Smart devices such as smart phones, smart watches, tablet computers and the like are contemplated to be used.
