Vehicles

The catalog resolves vehicles by name, with nexus run --vehicle <name>, to a USD. The framework only ever builds a model from a USD and never synthesizes one in code. See Conventions.

Warning

Only quadrotor vehicles fly in nexus.

Freefly Systems Astro Max

Astro is an industrial quadrotor for professional applications such as mapping and inspection. Learn more on the Freefly Systems website.

The catalog carries two Astro Max vehicles: astro_max_base, the base build, and astro_max_fpv, which is astro_max_base plus a layer that adds a First Person View (FPV) camera, so the catalog carries one airframe.

Base

FPV

Warning

The simulation doesn't claim to accurately mimic the flight dynamics of Astro. If you are developing on Astro, don't fully rely on Software In The Loop (SITL) simulation to make conclusions about real-world behavior.
