Lowest-weight drone built on Jetson Orin NX

Asked as: “Which Orin NX drone has the lowest airframe weight?”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

Of the drones built on Jetson Orin NX that list a weight, the InDro R&D Drone Platform is the lightest at 2,500 g. Our catalog records a single weight figure for each drone. It doesn't say whether that figure is the bare airframe or the ready-to-fly aircraft, so treat it as the listed weight rather than a confirmed airframe-only number. indrorobot...indrorobotics.ca ↗“mechanical.weight_g=2500 g”

The Skydio X10 and X10D list 2,110 g, which is lighter than either drone above. However, their compute module is listed only as an "NVIDIA Jetson Orin SoC", not specifically Orin NX, so I couldn't confirm that they qualify. skydio.com +2skydio.com ↗“mechanical.weight_g=2110 g”skydio.com ↗“mechanical.weight_g=2110 g”skydio.com ↗“compatibility.jetson_module=NVIDIA Jetson Orin SoC”
