Anti-Cast: Deploying Emergency Comms with Drones & Mesh with Evan & Luke

Anti-Cast: Deploying Emergency Comms with Drones & Mesh with Evan & Luke

What if you could restore communications after a disaster using tools you can build, carry, and deploy yourself?

Join Evan Kirstein, Mesh Networking Practitioner & Amateur Radio Operator (KJ5MCN), and Luke Canfield, Tactical UAS Researcher & Defense Systems Analyst, for a free one‑hour Anti-Cast where they’ll walk you through a practical, field‑tested approach to re‑establishing connectivity using two accessible technologies: 3D‑printable FPV airframes and Meshtastic (LoRa) mesh radios.

You’ll learn how to select frames and components, design resilient meshes, navigate the high‑level legal and ethical boundaries, and deploy hardened handheld nodes, elevated antennas, and solar‑backed repeaters to restore situational awareness and coordination when infrastructure fails.

By the end of this session, you’ll have a repeatable blueprint for building and fielding low‑cost, infrastructure‑independent communication systems—an essential capability for incident responders, EMCOMM volunteers, and small‑business continuity teams committed to #DronesForGood.
