Unmanned Systems Asia 2019: Volans-i seals Singapore package deal
US-based unmanned systems provider Volans-I will begin performing visual line-of-site package delivery flights trials in Singapore at the end of April, as part of the Future Flight consortium which is embarking on the two-year project with the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore.
Volans-i opened its Singapore office in 2017 as part of a wider effort to expand into the region. Showcasing its range of unmanned systems in Asia for the first time, the company will initially use multirotor UAS for phase one of the project, before transitioning at a later date to the larger C-10 VTOL platform.
