Core aerospace engineering and protocols for Tethered Winch Mechanics.
Landing a delivery drone in a customer's backyard introduces massive hazards: spinning carbon-fiber propeller blades risk maiming curious children or pets, while uneven lawns risk tipping the aircraft over.
AAVDelivery hovers safely at 15 meters—well above trees and power lines—and lowers parcels via a high-speed tethered winch. Integrated load cells sense when the parcel touches the grass, instantly opening an electronic latch and reeling the cable back in under 4 seconds, minimizing residential noise.
