Product Overview
Meet the BGT-CF1(H5), a cutting-edge ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor engineered for small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and autonomous platforms. Utilizing advanced ultrasonic resonance technology, it delivers instant, accurate wind data without any moving parts. Weighing just 56g with a compact 50mm diameter, it's one of the lightest and smallest sensors on the market. Its rugged design offers exceptional resistance to electromagnetic interference, water, and dust (IP67), performing reliably in extreme conditions from -40°C to +70°C and at altitudes up to 4000 meters.
Powered by an ultra-low-power chip, it measures winds up to 60m/s, making it the perfect solution for drone flight control systems, automated navigation, and aerial environmental monitoring.
Key Features
Ultra-Light & Compact: At only 56g and 50mm in diameter, it minimizes payload impact. Features dual mounting options (upright on top or inverted on the bottom) for seamless integration onto any drone platform.
Built for the Extremes: Boasts an IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating and strong EMI resistance. Guaranteed stable operation in harsh environments, from freezing -40°C to scorching +70°C and at high altitudes up to 4000m.
High Performance, Low Power: The low-power-consumption chip enables high-speed measurement of wind speeds up to 60m/s (216 km/h) without draining your drone's battery, ideal for long-endurance missions.
Enhance Flight Safety & Stability: Provides real-time, precise wind data critical for stable hovering, safe takeoff/landing, and accurate route planning. Effectively mitigates flight risks caused by sudden gusts and turbulence.
