The 6 kg IDEFIX picosats will be placed into orbit without separating from the third stage. IDEFIX are educational satellites, involving the transmission of telemetry and prerecorded vocal messages. They are designed for an orbital life of 25 to 60 days and will be activated 10 - 15 days after the launch. Both picosats will transmit NBFM voice recorded messages and digital telemetry data, the first one on 145,840 MHz and the other one one 435,270 MHz.

Idefix is the pet name of the comic book character's Asterix and Obelix. The first amateur french satellite, which was launched November 26, 1965, was named Asterix.
