Unmanned aerial vehicle transportation being tested in Nizhny Novgorod and Samara

Cargo air transportation using drones is being tested for the first time in major Russian cities: Nizhny Novgorod and Samara. «BAS» company is engaged in air logistics in Russia. Despite electronic warfare and the complexity of working within the city limits, the operators coped with the task.

Drone operators from «BAS» conducted test flights in both cities along two routes at an altitude of 150-220 meters. The drones had to overcome a distance of 5.5 to 17 kilometers, and they successfully did so.

Two different drone models participated in the testing. The «Courier-30» delivery drone manufactured by the Nizhny Novgorod-based «KleverKopter» LLC and the «Alfa E» unmanned helicopter with an electric motor «Alfa E», developed by «GC \"Quiet Wings\"» LLC (part of the «Kalashnikov» concern), were involved.
