U.S. Assembled. High-Speed APS-C Mapping Camera for Fixed-Wing UAVs.

The Mapper 24Pro designed for professional aerial mapping, surveying, photogrammetry, and fixed-wing UAV applications, also assembled in the USA by UnmannedRC USA, the Mapper 24Pro combines a lightweight and compact aluminum camera body with a high-resolution 24MP APS-C Sony CMOS sensor, high-speed continuous shooting, advanced camera control capabilities, and flexible triggering options.

Mapper 24Pro features a stable and fast shutter speed, making it particularly well suited for fixed-wing UAV mapping, where higher flight speeds and image capture timing can be critical to maintaining consistent mapping coverage.

Assembled in the USA

The Mapper 24Pro is assembled in the United States by UnmannedRC USA.

 UnmannedRC USA to perform local assembly, inspection, configuration, and quality-control processes before the camera is delivered to customers.

It also provides U.S. customers with a direct local source for technical support, integration assistance, and product service.

U.S. Assembled • Local Quality Control • U.S. Support

A faster shutter can help reduce motion-related image blur during aerial image capture, supporting sharper imagery for photogrammetry and mapping workflows.

With continuous shooting of up to 4 frames per second, the Mapper 24Pro is designed to capture imagery rapidly while the aircraft moves along its mapping flight path.

Ideal for:

• Fixed-wing UAV mapping

• High-speed aerial surveying

• Photogrammetry

• Orthomosaic generation

• 3D reconstruction

• Land surveying

• Infrastructure mapping

• Large-area mapping

• LiDAR + camera payloads

• Professional UAV research and development

Airpixel & MAVLink Compatibility

The Mapper 24Pro is compatible with the Airpixel R3 system for geotagging and MAVLink integration.

This allows the camera to become part of a more complete aerial mapping payload, connecting camera capture with UAV flight and positioning data.

For users building automated mapping systems, the combination of the 24Pro, Airpixel R3, and compatible flight-control systems provides a flexible foundation for professional UAV mapping operations.

Mini Touchscreen Camera Control

The Mapper 24Pro includes a detachable 2-inch mini touchscreen, providing a convenient way to configure and monitor camera settings.

The touchscreen is powered separately by 5V DC and gives operators a simple interface for camera setup without requiring a traditional full-size camera display.

For UAV payload integration, the compact display can be positioned where it is convenient for system setup and pre-flight configuration.

HDMI Camera Monitoring

The  Mapper 24Pro provides HDMI video output, allowing the camera to connect to an external HDMI capture device.

With an HDMI video capture card, users can connect the camera to compatible Android devices to view the camera interface and monitor settings.

This provides additional flexibility for UAV operators and integrators who want a portable setup solution without adding a large dedicated monitor to the aircraft.

TTL & PWM Triggering

The 24Pro includes a dedicated trigger-mode switch that allows users to select between:

TTL Triggering
or
PWM Triggering

This gives UAV system integrators greater flexibility when connecting the camera to different flight controllers, payload controllers, and triggering systems.

The selectable trigger interface makes the camera easier to integrate into a variety of fixed-wing and multirotor UAV architectures.

24MP APS-C Sony Sensor

The Mapper 24Pro features a 24.3MP Sony APS-C CMOS sensor with a 23.50 × 15.60 mm sensor area.

The APS-C format provides a balance between image resolution, sensor performance, camera size, and payload weight, making it well suited for professional aerial mapping applications.
