The obstacle avoidance distance varies with the obstacle's ability to reflect electromagnetic waves and its surface size. 24 GHz millimeter-wave radar sensing system: Supports downward sensing, and its sensing range varies depending on the ground material. For example, the sensing range on cement is 12 m, while grass with a thickness of more than 3 cm reduces the range to less than 6 m. Aircraft version limitations* To comply with (national) regional regulations, certain aircraft versions use a 24 GHz millimeter-wave radar in the downward direction and 60 GHz radars in the forward, backward, and upward directions. In the 24 GHz aircraft version, the 60 GHz radars in the forward, backward, and upward directions are disabled in the flight software at the factory. Only the 24 GHz radar in the downward direction is enabled to assist in landing. The 24 GHz aircraft version only supports visual obstacle avoidance under good lighting conditions and does not support millimeter-wave radar obstacle avoidance at night.

At least one of the two conditions should be met: sufficient lighting or the obstacle has a strong reflection ability to electromagnetic waves. Sidewards: Surface with rich texture, under sufficient lighting (>15 lux, normal indoor fluorescent lighting environment).
