About the product
Description
MagDrone R3 by SENSYS (Germany) is a drone-based magnetometer system for geophysical surveys and UXO detection. It consists of an ultra-light carbon fibre tube with two built-in triaxial fluxgate sensors, a one-button data logger with internal memory, rechargeable batteries and integrated GPS. The system is designed for small and medium-sized survey drones that carry lighter payloads but fly longer.
01
Ready to use
The kit includes a 1,070 mm carbon fibre tube with two triaxial sensors (150 pT resolution), a data logger with 2 GB memory, integrated u-blox GPS and two rechargeable batteries. Recording starts and stops with a single button, and the “SENSYS Remote” app (Android) lets you check system status via Bluetooth before and after the flight and see live values at 2 Hz.
02
Compact mounting
Thanks to the 200 Hz sampling rate, the MagDrone R3 can be mounted directly on the drone's landing legs or gear, even close to the propellers. According to the manufacturer, the system can separate motor noise, mains frequencies, temporal disturbances and the ground signal. The frame can be screwed, strapped or glued to almost any drone.
MagDrone R3 is used for general-purpose surveys, scientific magnetic mapping, mineral exploration and security tasks: bomb and ammunition detection and area monitoring. Results depend on the drone's manoeuvrability and GPS accuracy. Data is downloaded to a Windows computer, processed with MagDrone DataTool and can be exported to MAGNETO®, GIS or MATLAB. Together with the reference station MagBase temporal disturbances (e.g. passing cars or mains frequencies) can be removed. For high-resolution detection of small objects – MagDrone R4 with five sensors. Important: a magnetometer detects ferromagnetic objects. It does not detect most modern mines, so the result cannot be taken as proof that an area is free of mines or small munitions.

Recommended accessories
The price is for the base kit. You can choose recommended accessories yourself: open their pages or click “Add to enquiry” – we will prepare a combined offer.
Recommended
Carrier drone: DJI Matrice 350 RTK
The manufacturer's examples use DJI Matrice series drones. The Matrice 350 RTK is a reliable choice with RTK positioning.
Recommended
Carrier drone: DJI Matrice 400
A newer platform with higher payload and longer flight time.
Recommended
MagBase reference station
Fixed station for recording the Earth's magnetic field: helps remove temporal disturbances (vehicles, mains frequencies).
Recommended
MAGNETO® software
Optional SENSYS software for data analysis and interpretation: colour maps, position and size of suspicious objects.
Recommended
Terrain following system
For detection it is recommended to fly about 1 m above the surface, so a terrain following solution is useful.
