CA121 Long-Range
Laser Distance Module
A 3,000m Horizon Series rangefinding platform with light PPS and metal housing options for different integration needs.
Range: 3,000m Range
Weight: 30g (PPS) / 65g (Metal)
Interface: UART / TTL
INTRODUCTION
The CA121 is a Horizon Series platform for qualified long-range UAV, monitoring, mapping, and industrial projects. Its listed measurement modes and housing options let teams evaluate different speed, range, weight, and mechanical priorities before application-level validation.
APPLICATIONS
- Long-Range Monitoring: Commercial perimeter and site monitoring.
- UAS & Drone Operations: Altitude holding, terrain following, and precision landing.
- Geodetic Surveying: Long-distance mapping and topography.
- Industrial Automation: Stockpile measurement and bulk material management.
TWO MATERIAL OPTIONS
Choose the Light Version (PPS) at just 30g for weight-critical UAVs, or the Heavy Version (Metal) for maximum durability and heat dissipation in industrial environments.
10Hz FAST MEASUREMENT
Evaluate moving-target performance using the listed 10Hz mode. The available signal-strength mode can support application testing for mapping workflows.
UNIVERSAL DRONE READY
The UART and Lua-script workflow supports Ardupilot or Pixhawk evaluation. Confirm controller, port, firmware, and setup compatibility before deployment.
Ardupilot Integration Workflow
Evaluate CA121 integration with compatible flight controllers through its documented UART workflow.
(Cube Orange, Holybro Pixhawk 6) via UART.
1. Universal Logic: Works via standard Serial/TTL. No proprietary CAN drivers required.
2. Lua Scripting Support: Use the available script to evaluate altitude-holding and terrain-following functions.
