A2Z Drone Delivery Opens Global HQ in Torrance, California

A2Z Drone Deliv­ery, a devel­op­er of com­mer­cial drone deliv­ery solu­tions, has announced the open­ing of its new glob­al head­quar­ters in Tor­rance, Cal­i­for­nia, U.S, reports a press release. The facil­i­ty will allow the com­pa­ny to con­tin­ue its growth as a world­wide leader in the drone indus­try. The HQ will be a base for R&D, prod­uct and soft­ware design, glob­al sales and mar­ket­ing, as well as cus­tomer train­ing and sup­port.

Aaron Zhang, CEO and co-Founder of A2Z Drone Deliv­ery, com­ment­ed, “Plant­i­ng our head­quar­ters in the aero­space cap­i­tal of the world ensures we have ready access to the high­est qual­i­ty aero­space tal­ent and sup­pli­ers, and are able to con­tin­ue the sup­port­ive rela­tion­ships we have enjoyed with local gov­ern­ment enti­ties.” 

He added, “From Tor­rance, we are able to pro­vide in-per­son sup­port for our cus­tomers, and have ready access to near­by flight test areas for flight tri­als and cus­tomer train­ing.”

The com­pa­ny recent­ly expand­ed its Ground Zero Test Facil­i­ty in Anji Coun­ty out­side of Shang­hai, Chi­na, “where com­pa­ny engi­neers con­duct advanced autonomous BVLOS tri­als under real-life con­di­tions,” explains the release. “These con­sumer deliv­er­ies not only pro­vide a valu­able ser­vice to res­i­dents of the rur­al area but allow A2Z Drone Deliv­ery devel­op­ers to learn how peo­ple inter­act with its drone sys­tems in real life, and adapt its designs to more seam­less­ly fit con­sumer demand.”

Ini­tial­ly launch­ing the industry’s first com­mer­cial drone deliv­ery winch in 2019, A2Z’s RDS2 Winch can be inte­grat­ed with almost any com­mer­cial deliv­ery Unmanned Aer­i­al Vehi­cle (UAV).

The RDS2 is also avail­able as a fac­to­ry inte­grat­ed fea­ture with the company’s expand­ing fleet of ready-to-fly, off-the-shelf com­mer­cial logis­tics UAVs. The com­pa­ny is cur­rent­ly tak­ing orders for its long-range RDSX Pel­i­can hybrid VTOL deliv­ery drone as well as the recent­ly-released medi­um range RDST Long­tail inte­grat­ed deliv­ery drone.

Com­bined with the UAV winch, these plat­forms allow drone ser­vice providers and cus­tomers to scale drone oper­a­tions, while address­ing con­sumer con­cerns about last-mile drone deliv­ery. These can include the dan­gers of spin­ning rotors as well as intru­sive noise. 

Deposit­ing pay­loads from alti­tude also keeps the UAV high above trees, pow­er lines and build­ings enabling longer sight dis­tances for mis­sions requir­ing visu­al line of sight. Where reg­u­la­tions allow beyond-line-of-sight (BVLOS), A2Z Drone Deliv­ery plat­forms “are able to con­duct autonomous mis­sions along pre­scribed deliv­ery routes.”

Apart from res­i­den­tial par­cel deliv­ery, A2Z drones can be also employed for med­ical deliv­er­ies, sup­port­ing first respon­ders and search and res­cue oper­a­tions, stream­lin­ing off­shore logis­tics and water sam­ple col­lec­tion.
