ALTA X - How we balance ActiveBlade (Live Replay) Freefly Systems 2020-05-28 | Take a look at how we dynamically balance each and every ActiveBlade used on Alta X. This reduces vibration to about 1/5th the level found on drones without ActiveBlade!freeflysystems.com/alta-x
Alta X - ActiveBlade Freefly Systems 2020-05-22 | When the Alta X is ripping across the sky at 75mph there is a phenomenon called 'Dissymmetry of lift'. ⠀⠀This refers to the idea that the blade that is advancing in the direction of flight is seeing a speed that is equal to the rotation speed + the forward velocity. The advancing blade creates more lift than the retreating blade.⠀⠀It is important for vibration and stability that lift across the rotor blade is balanced. Drones that do not use ActiveBlade will exhibit higher vibrations and lower stability. ⠀⠀Our ActiveBlade design compensates for this dissymmetry by reducing the angle of attack on the advancing blade, increasing it on the retreating blade, and balancing lift across the disk.⠀⠀This leads to the Alta X flying like a dream, the pilot smiling, the director complimenting, and the accountant being impressed with business growth.⠀⠀Ever wonder how this tiny, crazy company in Woodinville WA comes up with this stuff? ⠀⠀Hint - we do it because we are passionate about creating shots that were once impossible⠀MB01AGZB9BAHKFS

Freefly RTK GPS - Quick Overview Freefly Systems 2020-03-02 | Enjoy centimeter level precision on your Alta X with Multi-Band RTK system. Freefly RTK is available to add to any new Alta X purchase, or you can retrofit your existing Alta X.The system uses the latest precision GNSS module (F9P) from Freefly partner u-blox. Freefly RTK covers GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou.When integrating Freefly RTK into your system you will notice increased horizontal and vertical accuracy and repeatability. Users can choose to use GPS for height estimate which helps negate barometer artifacts (droop in forward flight etc)The system is design to be fast and simple to deploy. We have designed the kit to be a drop in upgrade for Alta X and the ground station features a new mag lock design to allow you to deploy the system with no tools.We have included 2 Active Helical Maxtenna antennas in the kit. These Antennas were designed specifically for the F9P module and give full hemispherical coverage to ensure full satellite coverage even at lower elevation angles.We know this system is going to fly, we've removed every gram we could from the design to maximize flight time, and used a usb-c connector for maximum compatibilityAll this tech talk aside - this upgrade means the Alta X becomes and even more precise partner for your Aerial Adventures.store.freeflysystems.com/products/freefly-rtk-gps

Freeflyers Collective - November Freefly Systems 2019-11-18 | In 2013 Freefly launched the MōVI M10 at NAB. The company was about 8 people at the time and we had just moved out of my moms garage into our first real office.⠀⠀We were so nervous to see if the world cared about the MōVI. We thought the idea had potential but were unsure if the people would embrace the technology. ⠀⠀Hugh and I had been working together in the film industry prior trying to fly larger cameras on very sketch drones (RC helicopters) while Dave worked in the background to organize the technology building blocks that would power the company for the next 5 years. ⠀⠀Our world changed when the MōVI hit the scene. We were introduced to the worlds most creative customers! The ones who could see past the rough edges and unrefined wiring on the M10 and saw potential. ⠀Thanks for believing then, and thanks for continuing to create the worlds best content. ⠀⠀Your work has made MōVI a real word, its made Freefly a real company, and we sure hope we have helped you succeed⠀⠀#freeflyers #wearefreefly #freeflysystems⠀⠀⠀Credits:⠀@leonardspp, @larsgoldbachdp, @ghostdigitalcinema⠀@walbergrobin,@copterkids, @fullcollectivemedia, @wildrabbitaerial, @joedouglasdop, @scottyscranes⠀@cameracarsaustralia, @camlstudio, @exodorentalspain⠀@hass_avocado, @allendorfmatthias, @philipbonmann⠀@camera_cave, @paul_epp, @spencerfrostfilms
