The Company has successfully engineered and tested payload drop functionality for the Sparrow drone.

The Sparrow has a total flight range of up to 30km with a maximum payload capacity of approximately 4.3kg (10lbs) and operates with the Company's advanced, automated and patented FLYTE software system.
