"Chinese Folk Fruit" arrived the next day
Planted in the Tang Dynasty, Wushan crispy plum has a history of thousands of years, is a well-known Bayu characteristic "native specialty" in Chongqing, and is also the golden sign of "Chinese famous fruit".
In the past, it took 9 hours to transfer Wushan crispy plums from the orchard to Jiangbei International Airport, and it took even longer to transport them to more than 1,000 cities across the country, which affected the quality and taste of Wushan crispy plums. Last year, in order to ensure the efficient delivery of crispy plums, Wushan Post established a "land-air combined transport" system, which only takes 1~2 hours to reach Wushan Airport. This year, United Aircraft joined hands with Wushan Post to innovatively propose a drone transportation scenario in the new season of "Wushan Crispy Plum" transportation, realizing direct flights of agricultural products from the main producing towns and towns to Wushan Airport.
Tian Gangyin, founder and chairman of United Aircraft Group, said, "It is the golden picking season of crispy plums, and this time United Aircraft and Wushan Post jointly innovated and tried the method of "air-air combined transport", so that crispy plums can be transported instantly from "field picking - drone transportation", seamless connection, from the original 1 hour to the current 8 minutes, the transfer efficiency has increased by 86.7%. The drone arrived at Wushan Airport, and after the connection processing, it rushed to send the "Wushan-Nanjing" mail flight, which was distributed to customers across the country, greatly improving the transportation efficiency and realizing more than 1,000 cities across the country to 'place orders today, see Li tomorrow'. In the future, we will continue to carry out large-scale normalized operations in the local area to help the development of the crispy plum industry in Wushan, Chongqing."
Multi-machine collaboration, safe and orderly
New exploration and new application of urban logistics applications
A number of logistics UAVs of United Aircraft perceive the surrounding environment information by carrying sensors, and at the same time realize the information fusion between UAVs through the information link, and use the airspace command and control system to allocate and make decisions on each task, so as to generate trajectory planning to ensure the safety and orderliness of flight.
01
Airspace command and control system, the cornerstone of flight support
The United Aircraft Airspace Command and Control System uses airspace grid technology to completely digitize the low-altitude airspace environment information and the information of the aircraft in the airspace into a computable airspace through various digital perception infrastructures. The coordinated flight of 20 Q20s and the smooth transportation of Wushan crispy plums are inseparable from the overall control of the "big butler".
The system grids the airspace of the event site, visualizes the management of low-altitude flight, and improves management efficiency. 20 Q20 logistics UAVs flew according to the route in the grid airspace, and the system marked the flight buffer area around the 20 route range, which not only avoided conflicts or mutual influence during flight activities, but also released the airspace in time after the end of the flight plan to ensure the efficient use of airspace and time resources. Route planning technology allows the Q20 to fly longer distances and accomplish more missions in less time and at a lower cost.
In the multi-aircraft and multi-task cooperative operation view of the system, the flight status and task implementation of all UAVs in the flight mission can be monitored and controlled at the same time, the mission planning route and real-time flight trajectory of each UAV can be viewed, the flight status and cooperation progress between the cooperative tasks can be mastered, and the flight conflict between the UAVs in the operation can be predicted and urgently avoided at critical moments.
Under the all-digital framework, the airspace command and control system of United Aircraft can carry out fine dynamic planning, simulation, prediction and implementation of all low-altitude airspace information, route information, aircraft information, terrain information, environmental information, flight plans, flight services and future new services in accordance with the operation rules approved by the control and management departments. In high-density, high-frequency, and high-complexity low-altitude flight activities, United Aircraft integrates new technologies with low-altitude economic industries, fully ensures the safe and orderly operation of UAV flights, and promotes the development of low-altitude economy.

For the first time in the country, multi-model and multi-flight UAV coordinated transportation
From the orchard at the foot of the mountain at an altitude of two or three hundred meters to the Wushan Airport at an altitude of 1,700 meters, with the elevation climbing, the weather on the 30-kilometer winding mountain road is changeable, the top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, and the geological disasters such as mudslides and landslides are frequently caused by heavy rains in summer.
With the rapid development of multi-UAV collaborative control technology, multi-UAV collaborative transport flight has also become a popular direction for industry applications. Compared with the single drone transportation mode, multi-drone collaboration can better play the advantages of multiple drones, flexibly adjust the number of drones according to the transportation requirements of different tasks, realize the effective allocation of resources, and improve transportation efficiency and effectiveness.
United Aircraft took the lead in carrying out the multi-configuration and multi-sortie transportation of materials in China, giving full play to the advantages of heavy load, long endurance and strong adaptability to complex environments, breaking through the limitations of single aircraft capabilities, effectively organizing multi-aircraft coordination, efficiently completing transportation tasks, and greatly reducing transportation costs.
The "Crispy Plum Special Plane" TD550 is not limited by terrain, with the ability of autonomous take-off and landing, fixed-point hovering, autonomous obstacle avoidance, etc., with a maximum load of 200kg, a mission radius of 200km, a cruising speed of up to 120~140km/h, and an air wind resistance of 8, with excellent environmental characteristics such as high and low temperature resistance, humid heat, rainproof, sand and dust, salt spray, mold, low pressure, etc., and strong environmental adaptability. The Q20 logistics drone can transport 10kg of crisp plums in a single flight, and it is seven-level wind resistant, and it still flies stably in the valley where the wind direction is uncertain.
The realization of multi-aircraft collaboration requires UAVs to have good recognition and perception technology. The Q20 logistics drone integrates advanced technologies such as six-way visual obstacle avoidance system, infrared perception system, satellite positioning system, and artificial intelligence, with a high level of intelligence. Flying in mountainous areas with complex terrain and weak signals, the Q20 can take advantage of six-way positioning and obstacle avoidance, high-precision take-off and landing, etc., to achieve remote control within a 20km communication radius; It supports Beidou short message communication and communication relay networking, and deploys multiple relay nodes in the mountain to achieve full communication coverage and unimpeded travel.
Out of the village and into the city, to "Li" promotion
Open up the "first mile" of the agricultural product logistics system
Through in-depth participation in the "Postal Express" mail and logistics network, the joint aircraft further makes up for the shortcomings of the logistics system at the county, township and village levels, opens up the "first kilometer" of agricultural products into the city, and brings great convenience and benefits to local farmers; It has expanded new channels for the delivery of agricultural products, and coordinated with various modes of transportation such as air and land transportation. The large-scale and normalized commercial operation of crispy plum transportation is another bold attempt by United Aircraft to focus on the field of low-altitude logistics under the guidance of the low-altitude economic development strategy, and also proposes a new model of low-altitude logistics for local agricultural products to "go out of the village and into the city", and adhere to the power of scientific and technological innovation to facilitate the transportation of goods and lead the new changes in the low-altitude era.
