The core of drone delivery: safety, safety and safety.


The appearance of Wing’s UAV is distinctive. It looks like a hybrid of a glider and a helicopter with not only 6 hovering rotors on the left and right sides of the fuselage, but also wings and 2 cruise rotors. The aircraft can lift and hover vertically, and cruise smoothly in lateral flight.

In order to minimize the harm to people caused by the accidental fall, the fuselage of Wing is wrapped with foam and thus it is very light.

Wing said that the design of the entire aircraft was completed by the cooperation of institutions including Virginia Tech, and that the safety of the aircraft was tested specifically in designing.


During the delivery, Wing generally controls the flight in a low-altitude area 30-40 meters above the ground, and complies with urban airspace management, basically not affecting manned aircraft.

One of the biggest difficulties for drone delivery is to ensure the safety of landing. Generally speaking, drones need to use sensors to find an open and safe place in order to land smoothly. However, the ground condition is complicated, and it is an engineering problem to land safely.
