Mini lidar strap to 249g drone

is there a mini lidar that could be strapped to the bottom of a 249g drone ?

Hi @steve_h and welcome to our forum!

Maybe this one could work:

It only weighs 58 grams!

thank you for that info

You are welcome!

Would that unit scan the ground and topsoil to reveal things not obvious to normal sight, and store that info on an SD card to look at later ?

According to product description, it can be used with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for ground surveying, obstacle detection, and terrain following. But I don’t see it has optional SD card.

thank you for the info

You are welcome.
