Mosaic A is a hexacopter with one job: survey. A 42 MP full frame camera sits permanently on a stabilised gimbal for orthomosaics and 3D reconstruction. It flies for 55 minutes with 2 to 3 cm RTK accuracy. It gives up payload flexibility in exchange for simplicity, and does the same job well every time.
