ThermoSight R-Series Thermal Weapon Sight
The new scope from the infrared leader
The FLIR ThermoSight® R-Series
is the world's first line of commercial Thermal Night Vision
rifle scopes for hunters starting at under $3,500.00. Compact
and easy-to-use, the R-Series combines the
features you want with the thermal performance you expect and delivers
rock-solid thermal imaging for seeing predators and varmints in
zero light or in the Daytime.
The
FLIR ThermoSight®
is a High-Resolution Thermal Weaponsight
that mounts on any Picatinny (MIL-STD-1913) rail and is
the ideal night vision scope because it detects heat energy,
instead of light. Conventional image intensified (I2)
night vision scopes require illumination from moonlight or other
sources, and can't reveal what's hiding in the shadows or in
low-contrast environments.
Built by the leader in Infrared Technology, the ThermoSight® R-Series delivers the
range of features you want—with the thermal performance you expect.

Guide and User Manual
FLIR has been making Thermal Imaging Systems for as long as people have been using the technology, but historically they have always been for governments, and priced beyond the typical consumer's budget. The R-series of thermal weapon sights are the latest offering from FLIR Personal Vision systems, and offer an impressive system for an affordable price. Unlike the T-60, T-70, and T-75 series, the RS units top out under $9,000. The entry level unit, the RS-24 has an MSRP of $3,499.00.
Like the ATN Odin or the Armasight Zeus: the ThermoSight RS is a
stand-alone rifle sight built on FLIR’s Tau-2 core with a variety of color palettes
and reticles which is much less a “TV screen” and more like a
traditional rifle optic with 3" of eye relief and integral Larue mount. With a
640×480 display in all models, you get a clear image
through the sight. Recoil is always an issue with rifle mounting
Optoelectronics, and FLIR has built a recoil reduction system into the sight.
A strategic structural design means that the R-Series is rated for recoil
up to a semi-auto .308.
The lowest
magnification and sensor is a basic 1X lens with a 240×180 detector and the
highest is a 16X option with a 640×480 detector. Reticles are identical
between models, but some color palettes are reserved for the higher end units.
Interestingly the 320×240 scopes run at a lightning fast 60 Hz, while the base
models, and the long range 640×480 options run at the standard 30hz. The high
magnification units use a manual focus while the smaller lens units are an
autofocus. All units have ± 6 eyepiece Diopter that can compensate for
different shooter’s eyes.
The
FLIR ThermoSight R-Series Multi-Reticle
Riflescope offers a range of lenses to suit
your varmint hunting needs.
The scope contains the most advanced image correction technology
available, and optimizes images automatically.
What's the right Field-of-View for you?
The ThermoSight R-Series offers a range of lenses to suit your Hunting Needs. The images below show how different lenses impact the Field-of View (FOV) of a scope using 320 x 240 resolution scanning hogs at approximately 50 Yards.
Along with fixed lens options of 13mm, 19mm, 35mm, and 60mm, the R-Series
provides three inches of eye relief, up to 16X digital zoom, and
multiple reticle options with a repeatable and dependable zero.
Select between "white hot," "black hot," and "InstAlert" palettes, and capture memorable moments with video out (on most models).
Offering up to six different detection palettes, including FLIR's
exclusive InstAlert™, which displays the hottest temperatures in
RED so you can detect animals, people and
other warm objects more easily. The R-Series combines outstanding
image quality with an easy-to-use design. The scope optimizes images
automatically using FLIR's own advanced image correction technology.
And large, glove-friendly buttons combined with a simple menu
interface give you access to every key setting in three clicks,
or
less.
