Sumario: This paper describes the development of a fixed-wing vertical-takeoff-and-landing (VTOL) platform for photogrammetric applications with the open autopilot Pixhawk 2. The general functionality and the results obtained with the integrated platform are explained, as well as the results obtained through test flights. The developed prototype was able to execute autonomous missions and obtain georeferenced images with good photogrammetric quality for the conformation of products such as orthomosaics digital elevation models (DEMs).
