If you are currently operating with an ALTA (Autopilot) version, there is no need
to upgrade if you’re happy with the current feature set. The Autopilot-
controlled ALTA has an excellent track record for reliability and smooth flight
characteristics. Currently, the Alta Autopilot version offers Orbit mode
functionality and the Velocity clamp feature. While the ALTA Pro will continue
to see features added, it is does not currently support Orbit mode and Velocity
clamp functionality.
When flying multiple aircraft at the same time, take extreme caution to ensure
that the aircraft connected to the laptop/mobile device is the desired craft.
Failing to connect to the correct device may result in an inadvertently arming a
aircraft or disarming one that is inflight.
We suggest not selecting ‘Connect Automatically’ when using WiFi to connect
to ALTA Pro and clearly labeling each 900/868MHz RX/TX pair.
900/868 MHz Radio
ALTA Pro makes use of a 900/868MHz radio to increase the communication range between
the ALTA Pro and laptop ground station. This allows users to monitor, update, and reroute
ALTA’s while up in the air or on the move.
