Airspeed Sensors

Airspeed sensors are highly recommended for fixed-wing and VTOL frames. They are so important because the autopilot does not have other means to detect stall. For fixed-wing flight it is the airspeed that guarantees lift not ground speed!

Hardware Options

Recommended digital airspeed sensors include:

• MEAS Spec series (e.g. MS4525DO)

  • mRo I2C Airspeed Sensor JST-GH MS4525DO (mRo store)
  • Digital Differential Airspeed Sensor Kit (Drotek).

• EagleTree Airspeed MicroSensor V3 (eagletreesystems)

• mRo Next-Gen MS5525 Airspeed Sensor

• Sensirion SDP3X Differential Pressure Sensor
• Holybro Digital Air Speed Sensor

All the sensors are connected via the I2C bus/port.
