Room for the payload.
Freedom for the mission.

A folding, heavy-lift aircraft for demanding payloads. Start with the lift capacity, then build the mapping configuration around your work.

A closer look

Big capability.
Thoughtful details.

From its ActiveBlade propellers to its folding airframe, Alta X brings a practical approach to carrying larger payloads.

Fold it down for transport, then build your field setup around the equipment your mission needs.
