Freefly Smart Dovetail Payload Adapter

Under the category of Smart Dovetail Payload Adapters, this innovative payload quick-release dovetail is designed for seamless mechanical and electrical integration with Astro and other vehicles utilizing the Pixhawk Payload Bus standard. The Smart Dovetail Payload Adapter securely mounts to your payload, providing a reliable interface with the dovetail receiver on the aircraft. This adapter is engineered for compatibility with the receiver side of the quick-release in several known configurations, ensuring versatility and ease of use.

Astro aircraft come equipped with the receiver side of the Smart Dovetail pre-installed, streamlining the setup process. However, the receiver is also available separately as an accessory for those who require additional units. It is important to note that the Smart Dovetail is not hot-swap compatible. To prevent any potential damage to the Astro aircraft or your sensor/payload, it is crucial to power off the aircraft before attaching or detaching a Smart Dovetail payload. This attention to detail ensures the longevity and reliability of your equipment, making the Smart Dovetail Payload Adapter an essential component for efficient payload management.
