Hi, i'm new to this forum <3

I am quite happy with my new Neo, but after closer examining its sensors, I started to worry a bit.

On the bottom there are 3 sensors, and I tried to check if they all work by looking with my smartphone camera into it. And of course, i can see the infrared emitted from ONLY ONE of these sensors, whereas I assume BOTH sensors (the thick one type) should be lit?

please see attached pictures and check your drone, it both, all three, or only one of these sensors are lit/giving ir off it...

One is IR LED, the other is IR sensor, all good.

thank you for clarifying! as both look exactly the same I thought the one might be defective.

it seems you are conform with the sensors there...
1. what is the 3rd (middle, small) one? is it a TOF (time of flight sensor?) - unfortunately i can not find much documentation online.
2. would love to know the nominal RPM and powerdraw for the neo during hovering - any way to access the data from the logs? (i dont find any way to display its contents) - since i really try to 3d-print a torodial propeller for the neo, if possible, to make it less annoying high/loud noise, other people dont like the sound it seems

thanks for your answer!

The third is a camera.

Hi there, thank you for reaching out. We've checked the picture shared above and everything is normal. Those are Infrared Sensing system with one LED and another is sensor.

Hope this clarifies your inquiry. Thank you for your understanding.
