CUAV 24GHz Miniature UAV Altimeter Radar ISTRA24

Compact Size for Easy Integration

ISTRA24 features a compact PCBA of only 45×45 mm and weighs just 6.5 g. It is easy to integrate inside a drone fuselage or under motor arms.

High-Performance Radar Design

It adopts an original antenna design and ultra-efficient signal processing algorithms. This high-sensitivity real-time processing covers time domain, frequency domain and phase information. The design shrinks radar hardware size and opens new possibilities for the UAV industry.

Altitude Measurement Range

This millimeter-wave altimeter supports altitude ranging from 0.2 m to 50 m. Long-time hovering below 0.5 m is not recommended. It supports stable hover and terrain follow flight.

Core Benefit: Constant Altitude Flight Mode

Altitude hold is one of the most critical flight modes for drones. High-precision altimeter radar is the foundation of stable altitude-hold flight. Pilots normally need frequent fine tuning to balance lift and weight. Altitude hold with this radar reduces pilot workload.

Easier Operation & Lower Risk

Once altitude hold is activated, pilots only control flight direction without adjusting lift continuously. This eases operation burden and lowers crash risks. The radar also delivers smoother high-altitude hovering for better aerial photography results.

Terrain Follow for Special Missions

It helps maintain a steady distance from the ground. This expands drone usability for scenarios such as power line inspection.
