Freefly went to NAB and dominated, debuting a new heavylift that is sure to take the film industry – the one they already kinda own in drone platforms – and create a new standard tool for production folks to use on set.
Introducing the ALTA drone:
The major keys are the 1) top mount for heavy cameras, and 2) the ability to breakdown the ALTA to a size nowhere near achievable in the Cinestar.
The hexacopter comes ready to fly out of the box, with a whopping 15 lb (6.8 kg) payload to tow bulky, high quality shooters such as the 6K Red Dragon, Sony F55 and the Alexa Mini.
Enjoy, Hollywood and beyond!
