Description

The TBS Lucid DroneCAN Airspeed Sensor is a compact, lightweight airspeed solution designed for fixed-wing and VTOL aircraft using DroneCAN. It features a CAN JST-GH connector with full DroneCAN support, along with direct I2C output using the proven MS4525DO sensor. Supplied with a stainless steel pitot tube and silicone tubing, it is ready to install out of the box.

This version offers a wide measurable airspeed range of up to 100 m/s (360 km/h), making it well suited to faster aircraft and general fixed-wing applications where absolute precision is less critical. Power is supplied via 4–6 V, with low current consumption and status LEDs providing clear feedback on CAN communication and power state.

For applications that require higher measurement precision and smoother airspeed data, TBS also offers the Lucid DroneCAN Airspeed Sensor PRO, which uses a higher-accuracy pressure sensor and is better suited to autopilot tuning, soaring, and long-range flight.
