The mass use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the mode of remote control "from the first person" (First Person View, FPV) in combat operations radically changes the picture of modern war. Their use makes it possible to damage or destroy enemy equipment, the cost of which is hundreds of times higher than the cost of UAVs. To successfully perform the UAV flight mission in FPV mode, it is necessary to ensure stable radio communication of the UAV with the ground control station (GSC). In the work to organize a radio line between the GSC and the UAV, it is proposed to use radio lines of the centimeter frequency range. At the same time, at the stage of flight mission planning, the UAV operator needs to have information about the parameters of the receiving and transmitting devices of the unmanned aerial vehicle complex (UAVС) in order to calculate the maximum flight range. The purpose of the work is to develop an algorithm for measuring parameters of the radio link of an unmanned aerial vehicle in the FPV mode of the centimeter frequency range. The use of this information will allow the UAVC operator to create a flight map and prepare for a combat mission. The material presented in the article contains practical value for UAV operators and can be used in the organization and planning of the flight mission of multi-rotor UAVs of the tactical level at a given distance. Also, the material can be used by UAV service units for the purpose of checking the technical parameters of the radio link between the UAV and GSC and the optical systems installed on board the UAV (video cameras, thermal imaging cameras, etc.).
