Cargo Drones Cargo drones are the most diverse category within advanced air mobility, with payloads ranging from a few kilograms to several hundred kilograms. The service range also varies significantly, with models achieving the highest ranges typically using hybrid power systems. Many eVTOL and eSTOL designers are active in this market, introducing new models or repurposing passenger designs for cargo transport. In some models, the cargo is stored within the droneʼs fuselage, while in others, it is carried externally.
