I need help with my first LoRa project

Hi everyone,
I recently purchased my first LoRa modules, which were the two Grove Wio-E5 models. I ran a few tests and sent a few messages using AT commands.

My next step is to build a flight computer for my new RC rocket. I’m looking to transmit data from the BMP280 to the ground station using these modules and two Arduinos. I’m a beginner and I have a few questions about it.

  1. Which mode should I use? Will test mode be ok for that?
  2. How can I automatically execute AT commands during flight with an Arduino? How should I program it to make this work?

Thanks in advance! :grin:

WOW Welcome sounds like a cool project! Keep us up to date!

These 2 have built in IMU

For transmitting telemetry data during flight, you should use transparent UART mode or LoRa P2P (Point-to-Point) mode. These modes allow you to send custom data directly from one LoRa module to another without requiring a server.

Hi Piotrus,
You can also program Wio-E5 directly in Arduino as usual without using AT commands.
