Make high resolution maps with Astro and 61 megapixel Sony camera. Designed and Assembled in the USA.

Product Details

Each Mapping Payload includes a Freefly mapping gimbal, 61MP Sony Alpha 7R IVA, a 24mm lens, a USB drive to capture geo-tagged images and a foam insert that nests under the Astro in the Astro travel case.

The Mapping Gimbal natively mounts to your Astro with the Freefly Smart Dovetail system.* This connection provides power and data communication from the camera to the the ground station controller (and LTE network) for camera controls (camera settings and shutter), gimbal control (tilt), and image preview. 

Smart Dovetail is not hotswap compatible. To avoid damaging Astro or your sensor, please power off the aircraft before attaching or removing a Smart Dovetail payload.

Notes

  • This kit includes a payload specifically optimized for mapping with the Vibration Isolator with Smart Dovetail and Astro. 
  • If you are buying Astro Map, it comes with this payload and the Vibration Isolator with Smart Dovetail pre-installed, in the travel case. 
  • The Mapping Payload is not available without the camera/lens, nor is it practical or advised to disassemble the payload to use the camera for other purposes. 

*If you are buying this for an Astro you already have, and it doesn't have a Smart Dovetail built into the vibration isolator, you will need to purchase one in order to mount the Mapping Payload on your Astro.
