JIYI Ground Proof Terrain Follow Radar for K++ V2

The JIYI Terrain Follow Radar integrates directly with the K++ V2 agricultural flight controller to deliver precise altitude tracking over uneven fields and undulating crops. By continuously measuring the distance to the canopy, it allows heavy-lift agricultural drones to maintain a constant spraying height, ensuring uniform chemical application and preventing ground collisions on slopes.

Key features

• Enables fully autonomous terrain following over steep gradients and varying crop heights
• Operates using 24 GHz millimetre-wave technology for reliable penetration through dust, mist, and spray drift
• Rugged IP67-rated enclosed casing withstands harsh agricultural environments and daily liquid exposure
• Seamless integration with the JIYI K-series flight control ecosystem via CAN bus

Specifications

• Operating frequency: 24 GHz
• Measurement range: 0.5 to 30 metres
• Altitude accuracy: ±0.1 metres
• Interface: CAN
• Ingress protection: IP67
• Compatibility: JIYI K++ V2, K++, K3A Pro

This sensor connects via the standard CAN interface on your JIYI flight controller. Ensure you mount the radar facing directly downwards with an unobstructed view of the ground, avoiding landing gear interference, and configure the terrain response sensitivity in the JIYI ground station software before your first flight.
