The advent of the low-altitude economy represents a novel economic paradigm that has emerged in recent years in response to technological advancement and an expanding social demand. The low-altitude economy is currently undergoing a period of rapid development, which underscores the importance of ensuring the safety of airfield operations. To enhance operational efficiency, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be utilized for the inspection of the surrounding area, runway inspection, environmental monitoring, and other tasks. This paper employs TurMass technology, the TurMass gateway is miniaturised as the communication module of FT24, and the TK8620 development board replaces the LoRa RF module in the ELRS receiver to achieve the communication transmission between the remote control and the receiver. Additionally, a TurMass chip is integrated into the UAV to transmit beacons, while an airfield management aerial vehicle is employed to receive nearby UAV data, thereby preventing collisions. A new ground test device was employed to mitigate the risks associated with the actual test. The article provides a comprehensive account of the underlying principles, system architecture, pivotal technologies, and prospective applications of the aerial vehicle.
