MicaSense RedEdge-P Dual Multispectral upgrade kit (For Current Users of RedEdge-P)
MicaSense RedEdge-P Dual Multispectral Upgrade Kit: Turn a Five-Band RedEdge-P into a 10-Band Survey Platform
The MicaSense RedEdge-P Dual Multispectral Upgrade Kit turns a single RedEdge-P into a 10-band dual-camera system by adding the RedEdge-P Blue sensor, with no need to replace the camera already on your aircraft. Both sensors capture together, so one flight returns coverage from ocean blue through near-IR with every band geotagged.
Satellite data tops out near 10 m (32 ft) per pixel, while pan-sharpening in the dual system reaches 2 cm (0.8 in), a gap that matters for fine-scale vegetation and habitat work. The kit contains the Blue sensor and its accessories only, so the RedEdge-P, DLS2, and CRP2 are not included.
Key Features and Benefits
- Dual-camera capture: RedEdge-P and Blue sensor record 10 bands together
- Ocean blue channel: 444 nm band highlights aquatic plants and algae blooms
- Red edge depth: 705, 717, and 740 nm bands expose plant stress
- Narrow bandwidths: tighter bands sharpen spectral accuracy across the full range
- Global shutter: every band records distortion-free and aligned in each frame
- Capture speed: raw DNG frames at up to 3 per second
- Pan-sharpened detail: resolution reaches 2 cm (0.8 in) per pixel
- Radiometric calibration: light sensor and panel keep data consistent across lighting
- RTK enabled: supports georeferenced mapping data through RTK positioning workflows
- Workflow fit: compatible with most professional drone platforms and Pix4D
Applications and Use Cases
- Crop stress scouting: catch chlorophyll and stress changes before they spread
- Weed mapping: separate crops from weeds to guide targeted treatment
- Invasive species surveys: flag problem vegetation across wide survey areas
- AI plant counting: machine learning models count seedlings at early growth stages
- Land conservation: follow vegetation, soil, and water changes over seasons
- Shoreline mapping: chart near-shore ecosystems across tidal zones and wetlands
- Algae bloom detection: spot blooms and aquatic vegetation in water bodies
- Research programs: collect repeatable multispectral data for environmental and conservation studies
- Time series studies: compare repeat flights reliably despite changing light
Spectral depth decides which questions a survey can answer, and ten bands cover more of them than five. This kit delivers that depth through one added sensor, so the RedEdge-P already in your program keeps working as the core of the system.
Adding a sensor to a working RedEdge-P setup should not mean starting over, and Dronefly, the premier West Coast UAV dealer, brings years of UAS industry experience to that upgrade. Every kit comes from a dealer that stands behind the integrated solution. Order the MicaSense RedEdge-P Dual Multispectral Upgrade Kit from Dronefly today.
