The first flight of the new ASTRA avionics testbed took place today. The sub-1kg electrically powered unmanned air vehicle is based on an off-the-shelf airframe and it is fitted with a reconfigurable, 3d-printed payload bay. The goal of this platform is to serve as a testbed for autopilots, sensors and other devices to be flown on other ASTRA aircraft during their development phase.
