Volatus Aerospace announced a new strategic partnership with RigiTech. This collaboration aims to integrate RigiTech’s Eiger long-range delivery drone into Volatus' expanding drone delivery network, significantly enhancing its medical delivery capabilities across Canada and beyond. Eiger drone is known for its robust, tested design capable of carrying 3 kg payloads for up to 100 km. Equipped with advanced avionics and a safety recovery parachute, the Eiger is ideally suited for the longer-range delivery requirements of Volatus' medical delivery services.
Glen Lynch, CEO of Volatus Aerospace commented: "Integrating RigiTech’s Eiger drone into our operations enables us to extend our delivery distances opening up additional avenues for medical and rural delivery. The Eiger’s long-range delivery capacity and reliability perfectly complement our existing local delivery RPAS, the Canary, enabling us to meet the growing demand for timely and critical medical deliveries over extended distances. RigiTech is a great addition to our partner ecosystem."
Adam Klaptocz, CEO of RigiTech stated: "This collaboration with Volatus represents a significant step forward in our mission to transform logistics through drone technology. Volatus' extensive remote operating experience and sophisticated Operations Control Center provide the ideal infrastructure to showcase the Eiger’s capabilities on a large scale."
Volatus currently operates two remotely operated drone delivery services—one in the Greater Toronto region and another in Edmonton, Alberta—with all flights managed remotely from its Operations Control Center in Vaughan. The addition of the Eiger drone will allow Volatus to broaden its service offering, adding range and catering to more remote and underserved locations across Canada and other developing markets.
