Key Benefits of the Nimbus

  • Can deliver 4 packages in one mission, reducing delivery costs up to 30% and drone traffic by 75%.

  • Reduces required personnel costs by 52.5% and maintenance costs by 75% compared to the competition.

  • Operates without complex ‘droneport’ infrastructure.

  • Flies over 80mph with 100 miles of range.

  • Can carry 15kg—over 40% more than our competitors.

  • Carries four 8”x8”x10” boxes.

  • Controlled by a smart cloud service that enables autonomous deliveries 24/7.

  • Crafted from a hybrid of composites, light yet highly durable.

  • 75% lower CO2 emissions from not requiring as many batteries and charging them compared to the competition.

The Skycart Nimbus is the world’s first multi-delivery drone, capable of delivering four packages in one mission, all through our autonomous cloud network. Our patent pending self-balancing multi-delivery technology makes the Nimbus the most advanced delivery drone on the market, with the ability to reduce delivery costs by 30% and drone air congestion by 75%.

The Nimbus was designed through an iterative process to ensure the drone is aerodynamically efficient to reach high speeds with lower than low emissions. The modular design enables each component to be replaced if broken, which maximizes scalability and minimizes maintenance costs. Unlike other drones, the Nimbus utilizes canards at the front of the aircraft, helping to minimize air resistance, enabling the drone to fly faster, and minimize any chance of stalling. Like an airplane, the Nimbus’s canards and wings stabilize the drone horizontally and vertically, and generate lift. Like a helicopter, the Nimbus’s motors can rotate so the drone can hover in the air.

The Nimbus’s pod is designed to reduce air resistance, and create safe storage for all packages. The pod fits four packages and has a built-in rack that allows for easy package loading and unloading. It even has the option to allow deliveries to be made by line, parachute, or placed on the ground.  At the bottom of the rack is a small door to enable the precise drop of each package.

Furthermore, each Nimbus has multiple cameras built-in which are supported by AI systems that can detect obstacles and maneuver accordingly to ensure the safety of its surroundings.

The Nimbus runs on rechargeable batteries and is controlled by the Skycart Cumulus Cloud, our cloud drone management service.  Nimbus flies to designated GPS locations, programmatically by Cumulus through 4G cellular towers which are backed by Iridium satellites when cellular signals are lost. Our Skycart Altus Mobile Application makes Nimbus deliveries simple with its user friendly interface to Cumulus.

The Nimbus also incorporates redundant processors, sensors, failsafes, and an emergency recovery system.
