FREEFLY ALTA 6 UAS for Aerial Cinematography
Key Features
  • Fold Up Design with Collapsible Props
  • Toad in the Hole Mount for MoVI Gimbals
  • Gimbal Top-Mounting Supported
  • Up to 15 lb Payload Capacity
ALTA 6 from Freefly is a hexa-rotor drone for aerial imaging that – when used in conjunction with a separately available MoVI gimbal – supports mounting the camera either below or above the airframe. This configuration flexibility makes shooting from virtually any angle possible, even with the camera pointed up. ALTA features a maximum payload of 15 lb, and is therefore suitable for DSLRs, mirrorless cameras, and even compact cinema cameras (depending on lens weight and other variables). Equipped with Freefly's own flight control system, ALTA works with a range of transmitters, including many Futaba, Spektrum, and radios (see specifications for specific requirements). Flight modes provided include Manual, Height Hold, Climb Rate Control (Vario), Position Hold, Ground Speed Control, Return-To-Home, and Auto-land. For monitoring and first-person view, the flight controller works with FPV systems from Skyzone, BOSCAM, Immersion RC, and Fatshark. OSD display is user-configurable, and telemetry can data can also be displayed on compatible Futaba transmitters.

Max speed?
Asked by: Anonymous
The flight time and speed are dependent on the battery and the payload, you can see the charted times and payloads. The fastest horizontal speed with a minimal payload would be at most 58mph.
