FedEx plans to carry out air cargo transportation test flights using autonomous drones from 2023, in collaboration with Elroy Air.

These test flights will initially be configured to make deliveries over medium distances, between FedEx warehouses. Named “Chaparral”, the drone in question, developed by Elroy Air, will be able to carry a load of between 135 and 225kg of goods and deliver them over a distance of up to 480km.
