Freefly Astro Max Mapping Bundle (NDAA/BlueUAS)

Freefly Astro Max Mapping Bundle (NDAA/Blue): Mission-Ready Aerial Mapping System
The Freefly Astro Max Mapping Bundle (NDAA/Blue) delivers unmatched precision, compliance, and reliability for government and enterprise mapping operations. Every component—aircraft, payload, controller, and radio link—is NDAA and DIU Blue approved, meeting the highest standards for secure U.S. operations. Designed for demanding field missions, this bundle combines the Astro Max aircraft with the Sony ILX-LR1 61 MP camera, Sigma 24 mm f/3.5 mapping lens, Doodle Labs 2.4 GHz Blue-certified radio, and a complete SL8 power suite for sustained, survey-grade performance.
Secure and Compliant by Design
The Astro Max NDAA/Blue is built for organizations requiring dependable U.S.-made components and certified systems. Its aircraft, Pilot Pro Controller, and radio link are all NDAA and DIU Blue compliant. The system ships with Standard Remote ID preconfigured for FAA compliance and can be disabled upon submission of proper exemption documentation. With open interface specifications and RTK readiness, it ensures accurate, consistent data capture while meeting strict procurement and operational security requirements.
Reliable Field Performance and Workflow Efficiency
This bundle is configured for continuous mission cycles, with six SL8-Air batteries, four SL8 Fast Chargers, and a durable travel case for organized transport. The Pilot Pro Controller includes a preinstalled Samsung Active Tab 3 and a Doodle Labs 2.4 GHz Blue radio, offering secure and robust control links. The vibration-isolated Freefly Gimbal ensures sharp imaging, while the Sony ILX-LR1 delivers 61 MP geotagged photos ready for professional mapping software. Standard Remote ID and BVLOS compliance expand operational flexibility for qualified teams.
