Frequently asked questions
How much does the MV-2M weigh?
MV-2M weighs 110g. Its dimensions are 59 x 48.4 x 85.7mm, so check both mass and envelope against your mount.
What power does the MV-2M need?
MV-2M accepts 10~ 26.4VDC. Power draw is 6.5W (AVG) / 20W (Stall). Confirm your platform can supply this continuously, not just at peak.
How is the MV-2M stabilized?
MV-2M uses 3-axis Nonorthogonal Mechanical Stabilization. Published angular accuracy is ±0.01°.
What is the MV-2M controllable range?
Pitch: -110°~+120°, Yaw: ±140°. This is the mechanical travel available to the operator or autopilot.
What resolution does the MV-2M capture?
3840(H) x 2160(V).
What temperature range does the MV-2M operate in?
-20℃~50℃. Outside this band the published specifications no longer apply.
