Product overview

The YANGDA Sky Eye-30HZ-S combines an EO camera, a stabilized 3-axis gimbal and built-in AI recognition and tracking in a drone payload for daytime monitoring. Its 1/2.8 inch 2.13MP CMOS sensor and 30X optical zoom lens, with a focal length of 4.3-129mm, support observation for border monitoring, industrial inspection, target tracking and emergency response. Digital zoom reaches 12X, or 360X with optical zoom. The EO camera has limited performance in low-light and nighttime conditions.

A quick-release mechanism provides tool-free installation and a secure physical connection on VTOL and multirotor drones. YDlink camera control software supports integration through MAVLink with PX4 and ArduPilot flight control systems. Control options include PWM, S.Bus, serial commands and software control via Ethernet. The camera delivers 1080P/60 video through HDMI and Ethernet and records 1080P/30 MP4 video. Its gimbal uses a 12v input, drawing 650mA in static operation and 850mA in dynamic operation at 12V.
