separate package
German startup creates a delivery drone capable of toting three separate packages
Although Wingcopter hasn't received clearance from the Federal Aviation Administration, the company moved a step closer to achieving that goal last year when it was named one of 10 companies in the United States to meet the FAA's "airworthiness" criteria for drones more complex than the consumer versions available online. The drone software company Flirtey and the delivery firm Zipline also were among the companies edging toward sending delivery aircraft weighing under 89 pounds into the skies.
