About Freefly ALTA 6

Freefly has engaged the community of aerial cinematographers and logged thousands of flight hours to develop a completely new way to fly. From the Synapse Flight Controller to seamless MoVI integration, ALTA gives filmmakers the power to tell their stories from the sky.

The Freefly ALTA unpacks, ready to shoot, in under five minutes. It is easy to fly, powerful, rigid, adaptable, reliable, and optimized for up to 15-pound payloads. Confidently fly RED, ARRI and other professional cameras, guided by our state-of-the-art Synapse Flight Controller. Capture aerials like never before with the option to mount the MoVI on top.

The ALTA is a Ready-to-Fly system that includes:
• ALTA Multi-rotor
• Pelican Case
• Battery Cage
• Landing Gear for Top Mounting
• Freefly ALTA App available for download

The ALTA comes fully assembled and includes all the necessary tools and accessories you will need to mount a MoVI and get it flying. The standard ALTA ships with a Toad in the Hole quick release, Battery Cage Landing Gear, FPV mount plate, cables to connect your personal receivers and/or FPV system, and mechanical tools to disassemble & inspect your ALTA.

Ready To Fly
The Freefly ALTA is designed to make your life as an elite aerial cinematographer more fun. It arrives in a robust, industry standard pelican case and is ready to simply unfold and fly. Freefly designed the system from the ground up to integrate seamlessly with the Synapse Flight Controller and MoVI stabilizers.

Top Mount Camera Option
A radical design has opened up an entirely new way to film from the sky. Fly the ALTA with the MoVI mounted on top of the multi-rotor for a truly unique perspective.

Fast Setup
Folding carbon propellers and folding booms allow the A LTA to go from a Pelican case to the air in minutes. The included Toad in the Hole Quick Release further streamlines the process of getting airborne quickly with a MoVI payload.

Heavy Payloads
Efficient, powerful custom designed motors achieve a perfect balance between performance and efficiency and set the new standard for heavy lift machines. Cameras such as the RED Dragon, Sony F55 and ALEXA Mini are flown with confidence and reliability with the ALTA's 15-pound payload capacity.

Synapse - Intelligent Flight Controller
The Freefly Synapse flight control system represents a new level of control, precision and reliability for unmanned aerial systems. The system combines high quality sensors with proprietary control algorithms to allow users to execute complex flight patterns with ease. It features an integrated on screen display, high-bandwidth position control, live graphing, dual receivers and has been tested for years by the industry's best pilots.

Optimized For Movi Integration
Freefly designed the ALTA with the MoVI line of camera stabilizers in mind, with the ability to go from handheld filming to capturing aerials in just moments with our Toad in the Hole Quick Release.

Ultra Lightweight Frame
Robust and lightweight were two important concepts leading the ALTA's development. They use the strongest and lightest materials available to minimize aircraft weight, which translates to increased flight times with heavier cameras. Our obsession with optimizing for weight and rigidity also pays dividends in extracting every ounce of performance out of the Synapse and MoVI to ensure you can get the shot in the most demanding situations.

Advanced Vibration Isolation System
A refined vibration isolation system rejects high frequency disturbances from the ALTA allowing the MoVI to create the silky smooth shots it's known for.

Next-Generation Distribution Board
The internal distribution board is weather sealed and conformal coated. It features four 12v power leads for driving LEDs or other accessories, as well as integrated connections for industry standard FPV systems.

Silent Drive Technology
Using cutting edge sine wave drive motor controls with active braking, the ALTA features low noise and precise, efficient, closed loop control of the propeller.

Data Logging
High speed data logging allows user analysis of critical flight data.

User Definable LEDs
Customize your ALTA's LED color scheme to suit your piloting preferences via the ALTA App.
