Freefly Astro Max Public Safety Bundle: Rapid Response Aerial Intelligence System

The Freefly Astro Max Public Safety Bundle delivers precision aerial intelligence for first responders and emergency operations. Built on Freefly’s proven Astro Max platform, this configuration combines high-resolution imaging, thermal capability, and long-duration power for fast, reliable situational awareness in the field. With the Sony ILX-LR1 61 MP camera, Sigma 24 mm f/3.5 lens, and Freefly LR1 Thermal Upgrade, teams can capture both visible and thermal perspectives to locate subjects, assess hazards, and document incidents accurately and efficiently. The aircraft in this bundle is not NDAA approved, but a compliant NDAA/Blue version of the Astro Max is available separately.

Dual-Imaging Capability for Critical Missions

The Astro Max aircraft provides stable flight and flexible payload integration for high-pressure environments. The integrated Sony ILX-LR1 delivers 61-megapixel clarity for mapping, documentation, and evidence collection, while the thermal module enables clear detection through smoke, fog, and darkness. Combined, these sensors give responders the ability to visualize hotspots, locate missing persons, and evaluate structural risks in real time. With IP-rated durability, high-efficiency 2270 propellers, and RTK-ready precision, this aircraft supports complex missions where timing and accuracy are essential.

Field Readiness and Operational Endurance

Designed for extended deployments, the bundle includes six SL8-Air batteries and four SL8 Fast Chargers for continuous flight operations. The SL8 Travel Case keeps the power system organized and field-ready.
