Bell’s new cargo carrier is a excellent example of using drone technology for rapid and cost effective, short range delivery. "Cargo-carrying drone from Bell called the APT 70 stands 6 feet tall, spans 9 feet wide, and can carry a 70-pound payload a distance of 35 miles. This machine could carry military gear, medical supplies, industrial components, and tools or help a delivery company with logistics. It takes off and lands like a helicopter, flies like a plane at speeds of over 100 mph, and does so by shifting its position 90 degrees in space. The drone is also smart enough to take wind direction into account: For example, when transitioning into horizontal flight like a plane, it positions itself and its wings to face the wind. While the APT 70 isn't designed to carry people, of course, it is in a broader category of craft called eVTOLS (electrical vertical take-off and landing craft) that could someday serve as air taxis that whisk people around cities. Many companies are working in this space—among them are Boeing with a vehicle called the PAV; Lilium with a small, futuristic-looking jet-like craft; Jaunt, which has plans for a helicopter-like vehicle; and Bell itself, whose air taxi concept is a hybrid called the Nexus." Many companies are working towards developing this industry because of many benefits and applications of heavy-lift commercial cargo carrier drones. They are fast and more environmentally friendly, which makes using these drones in our daily life in the near future more exciting.
