Three laser returns (one more than many payloads in its class) provide additional data fidelity through layered canopy, partially obstructed infrastructure, and complex surface geometries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dual U-blox X20 full-band GNSS receivers handle PPK correction across L1, L2, L5, and L6, and the integrated Ximea 20MP RGB camera colorizes the point cloud in the same pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor fleet operators running Freefly aircraft on power line inspections, forestry programs, and large-area terrain surveys, the L1 is a payload that was designed for the missions where range and scanning pattern matter more than raw point density and delivers both without adding software overhead to the operational cost structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eNon-Repetitive Scanning at 450 m. Built for the Missions That Demand It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Flux L1's design priority is legible in its spec sheet: 450 m range and a non-repetitive scanning pattern address a specific set of missions where conventional rotating LiDAR falls short. Power line corridors, where conductors may be only a few centimeters in diameter, require a scanner that doesn't repeat the same gap on every revolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForest surveys, where ground point extraction depends on pulses finding gaps in the canopy across multiple passes, benefit from the increasing coverage density that non-repetitive scanning accumulates with dwell time. And at 450 m, the L1 operates at altitudes where coverage efficiency improves substantially: fewer flight lines, longer transects, and more area covered per battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree laser returns further extend data quality through layered or partially obstructed surfaces, and the zero-subscription Flow app workflow ensures that the per-mission cost stays fixed at what it costs to fly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFreefly Flux LiDAR Payload Comparison\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n  .comparison-table {\n    width: 100%;\n    border-collapse: collapse;\n    font-size: 14px;\n  }\n  .comparison-table th,\n  .comparison-table td {\n    border: 1px solid #e5e5e5;\n    padding: 10px 12px;\n    vertical-align: top;\n    text-align: left;\n  }\n  .comparison-table thead th {\n    background-color: #f7f7f7;\n    font-weight: 600;\n  }\n  .comparison-table tbody tr:nth-child(even) {\n    background-color: #fafafa;\n  }\n  @media (max-width: 768px) {\n    .comparison-table th,\n    .comparison-table td {\n      font-size: 13px;\n      padding: 8px;\n    }\n  }\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"comparison-table\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCategory\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFlux O1\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFlux L1\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFlux H1\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScanner\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOuster OS1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLivox Avia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHesai XT-32MX\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePoints \/ sec\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5,242,880\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e720,000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1,920,000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRange\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e~200 m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e450 m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e300 m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eField of view\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e360° × 42.4°\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e70° × 77°\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e360° × 40.3°\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAccuracy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e±3 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e±5 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e±1 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePrecision\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.5 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.5 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLaser returns\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e633 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e715 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e715 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScan pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRepetitive\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNon-repetitive\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRepetitive\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNDAA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRGB camera\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXimea 20MP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXimea 20MP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eXimea 20MP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility and System Integration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFreefly Astro: native Smart Dovetail integration;
