Description
Freefly Alta X Skid Landing Gear gives your Alta X a stable, payload-friendly stance for smooth landings and confident takeoffs with cinema rigs, sensors, and custom integrations. The carbon-fiber and machined-aluminum construction keeps weight low while adding the footprint and rigidity heavy payloads demand.
Installation is fast and field-simple. Tool-less quick-release mounts lock the skids to the chassis, keyed leg hardware preserves alignment, and two leg sets let you choose the ground clearance that best protects gimbals and instruments on uneven terrain.
Stable Landings for Third-Party Payloads
- Optimized for non-Freefly payloads: supports a wide range of third-party cameras, sensors, and custom attachments under Alta X.
- Rigid, lightweight build: carbon fiber tubes and machined aluminum components balance strength with low mass.
- Smooth takeoffs and touchdowns: wide stance and skid profile reduce tip risk and vibration transfer to mounted gear.
Fast, Repeatable Field Setup
- Tool-less quick-releases: attach and remove skids at the field without breaking your payload build.
- Redundant locking: dual locking mechanisms secure each connection for mission reliability.
- Keyed leg hardware: consistent positioning every time to maintain payload balance and clearance.
Adjustable Ground Clearance
- Two leg lengths included: choose the clearance height that protects gimbals, LiDAR, or belly-mounted instruments.
- Uneven surfaces: added height and skid geometry help safeguard sensitive equipment during off-pavement operations.
Built for the Alta X Ecosystem
- Direct Alta X fit: chassis mounts, hardware, and drivers are included for first install.
- Serviceable design: end caps and hardware are user-replaceable for long-term fleet use.
*Alta X airframe and payload are not included with this kit.
