Does not include
For maximum versatility for a variety of operators, Alta X Gen2 does not include batteries/chargers. We recommend:
- At least one dual channel charger plus six Alta X Gen2 batteries, per aircraft. If you cannot charge in the field and need to operate more than three flights, add one pair of batteries per additional flight planned. Each charger can charge two batteries at a time, and adding additional chargers will speed up your overall charting throughput.
For applications other than flying industrial payloads, you will need additional mounting hardware / landing gear:
- For cinema or vibration damped payloads: Payload Vibration Damper + Skyview Landing Gear + Mōvi Pro Landing Gear for your Mōvi Pro
- For Cargo: Cargo Landing Gear + Various Accy specific to your application + Short Quick Release Mount
