The COVID-19 pandemic has created the distinct challenge for the piloting of drones/other UAVs for researchers and educators who are restricted to working remotely. We propose a Remote Visual Line-of-Sight system that leverages the advantages of Virtual Reality (VR) and motion capture to allow users to fly a real-world drone from a remote location. The system was developed while our researcher (VR operator) was remotely working in Vietnam with the enclosed real-world environment located in Australia. Our paper will present the system design and the challenges found during the development of our system.
