The sensor that doesn’t compromise.
Our rugged, built-to-last, professional multispectral sensor for agricultural drone mapping. Same technology as RedEdge-M, now ready to integrate with DJI SkyPort enabled drones.
The new DLS 2
All MicaSense RedEdge-MX kits come with the new DLS 2, the next generation light sensor. The DLS 2 has 12 sensors oriented at different angles, allowing for better sun angle measurements. With cutting-edge technology for irradiance and sun angle measurements, it provides more accurate, reliable data, greatly reduces the need for post-processing, and substantially improves radiometric accuracy. And, because it also contains an integrated GPS, setup with any aircraft is simple.
Q: What are the key differences between the RedEdge-MX Kit and the RedEdge-M Kit?
A: The differences are the following:
RedEdge-MX has an aluminum housing compared to plastic housing of the RedEdge-M. The aluminum housing is more rugged than the plastic housing (not as susceptible to cracking) and also dissipates heat more effectively than the plastic casing.
RedEdge-MX comes with the new DLS 2. The DLS 2 is our new light sensor featuring 12 different sensors for light calibration. Compared to the original DLS 5 sensors, DLS 2 is a better solution for radiometric accuracy. DLS 2 also has an embedded GPS receiver, streamlining the kit and making integrations simpler.
With the added value of a more durable case and enhanced light sensor RedEdge-MX is $5,500 list price. RedEdge-M is $4,900 list price.

Q: What are the key differences between the standalone units and the PSDK SkyPort models?
A:
Pros of the SkyPort Kits:
If the customer plans to use DJI Matrice 200 or Matrice 210 exclusively and is going to be using different payloads often, SkyPort makes attachment and removal of camera really simple.
Power and mission planning communication between the drone and the camera.
No need to utilize the WiFi dongle for mission planning - it should make mission planning more reliable and efficient.
Cons:
The camera is not going to be versatile on multiple aircraft since the SkyPort is attached.

Q: How integrated will the sensors be with the DJI Matrice 200? Will the Matrice 200 be able fully to integrate the sensor so that mobile SDK can properly trigger the payload and understand the changes in flight parameters so that third parties can access the information and develop it into their mission planners?
A: When plugging in SkyPort versions of RedEdge-MX or Altum into an M200 or M210, the DJI app recognizes the camera as a RedEdge or Altum. So in short, yes, mission planning software on the market can take it upon themselves to accept our cameras through the mobile SDK.

Q: What is the estimated shipping date for the RedEdge-MX (Standalone & PSDK SkyPort models)?
A: RedEdge-MX Kits (standalone) should be ready to ship next week (week of the 29th of October)
RedEdge-MX Kits w/ SkyPort estimated ship date is week of November 5th or the 12th at the latest.
