For higher flight altitudes and more complex operational environments, radar requirements now go beyond just "functional and sufficiently accurate." Building on the NRA24, the NRA24Pro achieves comprehensive upgrades.

Nanoradar UAV Radar NRA24Pro Launches

For higher flight altitudes and more complex operational environments, radar requirements now go beyond just "functional and sufficiently accurate."
Building on the NRA24, the NRA24Pro achieves comprehensive upgrades.
Evolving in performance and reliability, it makes drone flight safer and more stable.
Let's explore its key upgraded capabilities.


Core Specification Upgrades: A Clear Comparison
Longer range, higher accuracy, more stable near-ground performance, and enhanced protection together form the core upgrades of the NRA24Pro for safer drone flight.

Technology and Feature Upgrades: From "Able to Measure" to "Truly Understanding Flight"


1. Enhanced Anti-Interference

Upgraded from basic FMCW modulation to optimized LFMCW modulation + static clutter filtering algorithm. Anti-interference capability improved by over 2 times.

Blind Zone Configuration: NRA24Pro supports customizable blind zones from 0.2~5m, filtering out occlusion interference.

2. Intelligent Safety Awareness

Out-of-Range Sensing, Enhanced Safety: When the drone altitude exceeds the radar's range (<0.2m or >500m), the system automatically detects it and proactively warns by displaying "Confidence=0" on the interface, alerting the user to unreliable altitude data, ensuring flight safety.

3. Attitude Monitoring

Integrated 6-axis sensor provides real-time alerts for tilts exceeding 20°. By monitoring tilt in real-time and issuing proactive warnings, it helps users promptly detect abnormal flight conditions, reducing height measurement inaccuracies and flight risks.

4. More Reliable Data

Added hardware-software self-check function (<1s self-check), significantly improving data reliability.

Added cumulative checksum function, allowing the flight controller to "know if the data is trustworthy," enhancing altitude data reliability and flight safety in complex environments.

 

Interface and Compatibility Upgrades: One Adapter for More Platforms

 Expanded Interfaces: Added RS232 / RS422 / RS485 interfaces on top of UART / CAN, adapting to more scenarios.
More Flexible Protocols: NRA24Pro supports dual-mode free switching between host computer universal protocols and open-source flight control protocols. The NRA24 only supports protocol changes via firmware upgrades.
Open-Source Flight Control Adaptation: Officially compatible with APM/PX4 open-source flight controls, plug-and-play, no additional development required.

 

Scenario Upgrades: From Routine Operations to Complex Applications

1. Common Scenarios: Plant protection, logistics, low-altitude platform altitude holding.
2. New Scenarios for NRA24Pro:

High-altitude drones & eVTOL altitude holding (500 m range).

Precision terrain-following operations (terrain simulation function): e.g., forest inspection, complex terrain plant protection.

Harsh environment operations (IP67 protection + all-weather stability).

 

Summary: Why Choose the NRA24Pro?

 Performance Leap: Comprehensive upgrades in range, accuracy, and anti-interference.

Broader Compatibility: Multiple interfaces, protocols, and flight control systems, lower integration costs.

Stronger Safety: Self-check, attitude alerts, out-of-range sensing, high protection rating.

Better Experience: Low power consumption, configurable blind zones, more trustworthy data.

 

If the NRA24 was about being "functional and accurate enough," the NRA24Pro is redefining the safety boundaries and performance ceiling of drone altimetry.
Higher, more stable, safer — this time, it's a comprehensive upgrade.
