The first British trial starts to launch prime air delivery around 7.5 miles. All of these take off from the 465,000 square -foot Amazon warehouse in a symmetric park just outside Darlington.
Darlington has been selected because of its so many functions, such as housing density, major roads, and airports in the same narrow area.
The MK30 drone is equipped with many items on each flight and drops them from the cargo bai on several feet at the landing point.
A global business spokesman states: We are building a safe and reliable drone delivery service around the world with a community that provides services and we provide services, and we are trying to do the same in the UK. ”
The company has already begun a conversation on what the plan means, from 1:00 pm to 7 pm on Wednesday, February 5, at the first public event at the Central Hall of the Dolphin.
Amazon also needs to build a Prime Air Drone Distribution Center (Paddc) on a Darlington site that has been stored, deployed, and maintained for delivery.
PRIME AIR has recently been released from existing facilities in Torson, Arizona, and has been packaging to customers in Phoenix West Valley. The new drone design also includes innovative functions that can deliver packages in customers with small backyards and highly population density.
Amazon's spokeswoman added: “There are still a lot of things to do, but this is an exciting step. Planning applications are submitted to local governments. Local governments have applied for approval from private air authorities to fly drones to air spaces. In addition, when these contracts are set up on the site, you can start a team member.
“We will continue to work closely to the CAA developing a regulation framework and realizing commercial drones distribution in the UK.
“In the past, we will be involved in the Darlington community, answer questions, collect feedback. We are trying to provide this new option.
“There is nothing to share anymore at this time, but I will answer questions and collect feedback to provide this new option.”
The drone flying across Darlington has already undertaken strict tests to satisfy or exceed the FAA high bar for the approval of regulatory authorities given in October.
In the United States, some crashes reported, but Amazon's spokeswoman stated: that. “”
The approval of the FAA contained the ability to fly beyond visual lines using Prime Air onboard detection and avoidance system. This allows drones to identify and avoid objects such as aircraft, cranes, temporary structures, and other items. People, pets, property.
The company announced in 2023 that it would launch drones in more places in the UK, Italy, and the United States. With the early surgery in the United States, there is a drone that carries up to 5 pounds (approximately 2.2 kg) packages and is distributed within an hour.
The plan can be selected by a qualified Amazon customer to drone the delivery with a drone, so that you can choose from thousands or less items, such as household goods, daily necessities, beauty items, offices, and high -tech products. I stated that it was to do.
The MK30 has undergone strict safety and regulatory tests to supply half and half noise than the previous Amazon Delivery drones.
