FPV Thermal Camera Pilotix T256 CVBS (9mm)

Product detailed description

FPV Thermal Camera Pilotix T256 CVBS (9mm)

The Pilotix T256 CVBS (9mm) is a compact uncooled thermal camera module built for analog FPV systems, UAV surveillance, search applications, and industrial monitoring. It uses a vanadium oxide infrared detector to deliver reliable thermal imaging in darkness, smoke, fog, and other low-visibility conditions.

This version features analog CVBS output, making it compatible with traditional FPV transmitters, monitors, and goggles. The 9 mm lens provides a narrower field of view compared to wide-angle versions, allowing improved detection and observation of distant heat sources. This makes it suitable for long-range thermal scouting, inspection tasks, and aerial search operations.

Its lightweight design, low power consumption, and compact dimensions make the camera easy to integrate into custom drone builds and embedded projects where analog thermal video is required.
