DJI, a Chinese company that is perhaps best known for drones that cater to the cinematography and consumer sectors, has taken the timely move of plunging into the world of deliveries with the advent of an innovative new delivery drone dubbed the 'FlyCart 30.'
The 'FlyCart 30' is a delivery drone which, in its default avatar bearing a double battery setup, boasts the ability of hauling 30 kilograms to distances of 16 km at speeds that top out at 72 km/h. By working on a single-battery setup, this delivery drone can carry increased payloads to the tune of 40 kilograms with a halved range of 8 km.
This delivery drone offers the option of stashing goods in a 70-liter cargo compartment or by hanging the package using a specialized winch mechanism.
Set to be priced in at around $42,000, the 'FlyCart 30' delivery drone is said to be water-resistant and have the ability to withstand temperatures between -20 and 45 degrees Celsius.
