# Installation

Let's wire up and connect AIRLink Telemetry

### Ground module

Take the ground module, antennas and power cable:

{% hint style="danger" %}
**DANGER:** DO NOT POWER ON THE MODULE WITHOUT ANTENNAS, THIS WILL CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE AND IS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY
{% endhint %}

### Air module

Take air module and air module antennas:&#x20;
