Quick Installation

Minimal Downtime,
Maximum Performance

Installation of the sensor mount is designed for simplified integration, allowing for a streamlined setup with absolutely no speed limitations for payloads up to 200 lbs. The robust, CNC-machined design ensures critical mission readiness without compromising normal flight operations.

The sensor mount is engineered for operational flexibility; the hollow arm structure allows the sensor harness to be pulled through securely when the aircraft is flown without the sensor installed. When the arm is removed for non-surveillance missions, the kit includes a specific adapter plug to close the fuselage pass-through for seamless operation.
