Product Description

Freefly Astro Max Aircraft (NDAA/Blue) | Flight Time 20-43 Min | Payload Capacity Max 3 Kg

DESCRIPTION

The Freefly Astro Max Aircraft (NDAA/Blue) is a secure, U.S.-assembled industrial drone platform built under the Department of Defense Blue UAS framework. Designed with NDAA-compliant components, it ensures mission confidence for government, defense, and enterprise operations. With a 3 kg maximum payload capacity, 7010 motors, and 21-inch propellers, the Astro Max delivers powerful lift, stability, and precision. Its carbon-fiber foldable frame, dual SL8 Air batteries, and Smart Dovetail quick-mount system make it highly portable, adaptable, and reliable in the field.

Supporting advanced payloads such as LiDAR, thermal, and mapping sensors, the Astro Max provides centimeter-level accuracy with its RTK-ready GPS system. The Pilot Pro controller ensures secure telemetry, precise mission control, and real-time data monitoring. With up to 43 minutes of flight time (no payload) and robust compliance standards, the Astro Max is the go-to aerial solution for secure, professional-grade operations.
