STATEMENT OF WORK
1. Objective/Requirements
NASA Langley Research Center requires the purchase of Alta X + Pilot Pro. The Alta X is an NDAA Compliant UAS, which NASA Langley currently uses in flight operations as a variable payload, heavy-lift aircraft. Several missions depend on this aircraft configuration to be successful. D101 has extensively worked with many Freefly Systems aircraft including the Alta X. Familiarity with this aircraft boosts mission and operational efficiency.
2. Characteristics, Scope, and Specs
• Electric-powered, heavy-lift quadrotor with 33x9in. Carbon Fiber Reinforced Nylon propellers.
• Maximum Gross for Takeoff: 34.86kg / 76.85lb
• Maximum Payload: 15.06kg / 33.2lb
• Typical Standard Empty Weight: 10.86kg / 23.94lb
• Custom Auterion PX4 flight control stack, supporting MAVlink SDK, JETI, Herelink, and PX4 compatible SBUS and PPM receivers.
• Designed for variable payload integration and reliability in austere environments.
• Capitalizes on benefits of large, efficient props while maintaining precise control.
• ActiveBlade propeller design reduces vibration to 1/5th of normal level
