Alta X DIU Blue List Approved Drone : The DIU version of Alta X will be the same as the Blue version, but it will include a UVX remote controller with a built in screen which is certified Blue by DIU

Freefly designed Alta X from the ground up to capitalize on the benefits of large, efficient props while maintaining the crisp control and unmatched precision the Alta line is known for. Based on feedback from users about the Alta 8 and Alta 8 Pro, they developed a new flagship model, the Alta X. The first Alta X shipped in September, 2019 and did everything the Alta 8 Pro did and more, with better performance, payload capacity and control. The Alta X is now the go-to choice for both industrial custom payloads along with cinema pilots making movie magic with the Movi Pro.
SMALL FOOTPRINT BIG IMPACT : Alta X folds to half its normal size with ease and no tools required. The folding linkages also stiffen the booms to ensure low vibration and precise flight characteristics.
Here are some other key features of the Freefly Alta X drone:
- Massive Payload Capacity : The Alta X boasts an impressive 35lb payload capacity, allowing it to carry heavy professional camera setups, LiDAR systems, or other demanding equipment.
- Long Flight Time : The Alta X will average flight times between 20-40 minutes depending on your payload weight. Swap your 12S batteries for a set of 6S batteries using this adapter kit to reduce your overall weight.
- Fold It Up : This drone features a unique design that reduces its size by half when folded. This allows for faster setup times and easier transportation compared to traditional drones.
- Ultra-Low Vibration : Freefly's Active Blade technology dampens motor vibrations down to 1/5th of normal levels. This translates to smoother flight characteristics, cleaner data collection for LiDAR and other sensors, and superior quality footage for professional videography.
- Rugged Construction : Built for demanding professional use, the Alta X is built tough and tested hard in the US for reliability.
- Easy Integration : The drone features multiple expansion ports for integrating various cameras, sensors, and other accessories.
- Precise Flight Control : The Alta X utilizes a custom PX4 flight control stack, offering stable and responsive flight for even the most complex operations.
