Mounting plate packages
Every platform is different, however we aim to provide a generic way to integrate our sensors into your platform. To enable this, we offer three ‘flavors’ of integrations:
1. Basic Mounting Plate
This is a robust aluminum plate designed to simplify attaching the spectrometer to your drone or survey platform.
What’s included: One standard mounting plate compatible with the sensor.
What you need to do: Your engineering team will need to fit this plate to the drone or platform, which typically requires drilling holes and installing it with screws
Example reference: MSB-301 Assembly Instructions
2. Basic Mounting Plate + Quick-Release System
Same as the basic mounting plate, but we supply the plate including a quick-release system for faster attachment and removal.
What’s included: One standard mounting plate compatible with the sensor + quick release.
What you need to do: Your engineering team will need to fit this quick release to the drone or platform, which typically requires drilling holes and installing a quick-release system.
Example reference: MSB-301 Assembly Instructions or MSB-302 Assembly Instructions
3. Custom Drone Integration
For clients who require a fully integrated solution tailored to their specific drone type, we offer a custom development service focused on creating a dedicated mounting frame.
What’s included:
Custom-designed mounting plate (optionally with quick-release), developed to match the exact specifications of your drone.
Important: This process only covers the development of the mounting frame. It does not include integration into the drone’s control systems, power systems, or flight software.
What’s required from you:
Provide detailed technical information about your drone model and where and how the sensor should be integrated.
Appoint a technical contact person to liaise with our engineers to ensure the integration requirements are clearly communicated.
Development process:
Review of drone specifications and integration points
Engineering design of the custom mounting plate
Manufacturing of the final mount
Responsibility notice:
While we support the development of the mounting hardware, the final responsibility for the use, installation, and performance of the sensor under the vehicle remains with the customer. It is crucial that all designs are reviewed and verified with the drone or vehicle manufacturer before installation to ensure safe and proper operation.
Disclaimer
All mounting solutions and custom integrations are developed without physical access to the client’s drone or platform. We strongly advise that clients verify the final mounting design with the drone or platform manufacturer before installation.
Medusa Radiometrics cannot be held liable for any damage, malfunction, or loss resulting from incompatibility between the mounting plate and the drone or survey system.
