Product Details & Specifications

Description

MicaSense RedEdge-P Dual Multispectral Upgrade Kit: Ten Bands from the RedEdge-P You Already Fly

The MicaSense RedEdge-P Dual Multispectral Upgrade Kit adds the RedEdge-P Blue sensor to your existing RedEdge-P, giving you 10 synchronized narrow bands in a single pass over the field. Global shutter imaging, automatic triggering, and geotagging keep every frame aligned and ready for processing.

Operators who already fly a RedEdge-P add only the Blue sensor, and the base camera stays right where it is on your aircraft. With pan-sharpening, spatial resolution reaches 2 cm (0.8 in) per pixel, compared with roughly 10 m (32 ft) from Landsat and Sentinel satellite data. The kit does not include the RedEdge-P, a DLS2, or a CRP2.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Ten synchronized bands: Blue sensor pairs with RedEdge-P for simultaneous capture
  • Ocean blue band: 444 nm channel supports aquatic vegetation and algae mapping
  • Red edge coverage: three red edge bands support advanced plant stress analysis
  • Narrow bands: tight bandwidths improve spectral data accuracy in every capture
  • Global shutter: distortion-free frames with bands aligned across every capture
  • Fast capture: up to 3 raw DNG images per second
  • Pan-sharpening: delivers 2 cm (0.8 in) per pixel spatial resolution
  • Double calibration: DLS2 and CRP2 support reliable data in varying light
  • RTK enabled: supports RTK positioning for accurately georeferenced mapping data
  • Platform compatibility: works with most professional drone platforms such as DJI

Applications and Use Cases

  • Crop health analysis: monitor chlorophyll levels and detect plant stress early
  • Weed identification: separate crops from weeds for targeted field management
  • Invasive species mapping: identify problem vegetation across large survey areas
  • Crop counting: machine learning workflows count plants at early growth stages
  • Ecosystem surveillance: track vegetation changes, soil conditions, and water availability
  • Coastal habitat mapping: map near-shore ecosystems across tidal zones and wetlands
  • Aquatic vegetation: analyze vegetation in water bodies and detect algae blooms
  • Environmental research: support conservation studies and sustainable land management programs
  • Time series monitoring: compare repeat flights reliably under varying light conditions

Five bands answer some field questions and leave others open, and this upgrade closes that gap without replacing the camera you already fly. Synchronized capture keeps all ten bands aligned in a single pass, which makes datasets easier to process and defend when a crop, wetland, or shoreline survey gets reviewed.

Before you order an upgrade like this, you want confirmation that it matches the RedEdge-P already in your kit, and DSLRPros technicians can check that with you. With decades of experience in the UAS industry serving agriculture, mapping, and environmental programs, DSLRPros supports the full sensor setup, not just the part.

What is included in the RedEdge-P Dual upgrade kit?

The kit includes the RedEdge-P Blue sensor, USB Wi-Fi dongle, lens cover, integration cables, assorted mounting hardware, CFexpress card, hard carrying case, and start guide. It does not include the RedEdge-P camera, a DLS2, or a CRP2. Those items are not part of the kit, so confirm your existing setup before ordering.

Do I need a RedEdge-P to use this kit?

Yes, this kit is built for current RedEdge-P users. It adds the RedEdge-P Blue sensor to the RedEdge-P you already own, and the two work together as the dual solution. DSLRPros can confirm your existing setup before you order.

Which bands does the Blue sensor add?

The RedEdge-P Blue sensor adds Ocean blue 444(28), Green 531(14), Red 650(16), Red Edge 705(10), and Red Edge 740(18), with wavelength in nm and bandwidth in parentheses. Combined with the RedEdge-P bands, which are Blue 475(32), Green 560(27), Red 668(14), Red Edge 717(12), and Near-IR 842(57), the system captures 10 bands in total.

What resolution does the dual system deliver?

Each multispectral band captures 1456 x 1088 pixels (1.6 MP) and reaches 7.7 cm (3 in) per pixel at 120 m (about 400 ft) AGL. With pan-sharpening, spatial resolution reaches 2 cm (0.8 in) per pixel, compared with roughly 10 m (32 ft) from Landsat and Sentinel satellites. Specifications are subject to change without notice.

Can I add more bands later?

Yes, the RedEdge-P series supports an additional RedEdge-P Green sensor for a 15-band setup. The Green sensor is a separate product and is not part of this upgrade kit. It adds Cyan 502(18), Green 550(12), Yellow 570(14), Red 678(14), and Near-IR 754(10).
