TORONTO, Feb. 28, 2020 /CNW/ - Drone Delivery Canada
'DDC' or the 'Company' (TSX.V:FLT, OTC:TAKOF), is pleased
to announce that it will begin testing of its Robin XL
(Robin). The Robin has a lifting capability of 25lbs of
payload, a travel range of 60km and is designed for harsher
climates.
The Robin XL is larger than DDC's Sparrow cargo delivery drone.
The Robin has an electric power plant and boasts a payload capacity
of 25 lbs and a flight distance of 60km. The Robin is
engineered for harsher environments, heavier wind capability and
colder temperatures than the Sparrow.
"Our engineering team has been working alongside various
commercial partners and clients to develop the Robin to satisfy
their commercial requirements," stated Paul
Di Benedetto, CTO at Drone Delivery Canada. "We are very
excited to commence flights with the Robin as our technology
continues to evolve to address the requirements of our customers
around the globe," added Di
Benedetto.
The Robin XL will also feature the option to have automatic
cargo deployment, no longer requiring a handler to remove the cargo
upon arrival. With this automated payload release option, the
Robin will be able to automatically release the cargo at its
pre-defined drop off location and return to its originating point.
The requirement for a cargo handler at the receiving side will no
longer be required with this cargo deployment system.
The Robin will begin commercial testing in Southern Ontario and the Company looks to
announce commercial routes for the Robin as early as Q2, 2020.
