--FILE--A drone for delivering parcels is on display at the stand of SF Express during an exhibition in Shenzhen city, south China's Guangdong province, 12 October 2017. Chinese logistics giant SF Express carried out its first demonstration flight using drones to deliver emergency supplies at an airport in southwestern Yunnan province on Tuesday (26 December 2017). The drone arrived at the airspace above a base station at the simulated emergency site after a 30-minute flight. It then descended to the height of about 300 meters and delivered spare parts for telecommunications to the ground in about 30 seconds. The trial is aimed at testing the company's capability in applying logistics drones in emergency services. According to SF, the unmanned aerial vehicle for the demonstration operation is one of the world's large-sized logistics drones. With a cruise speed that can reach 250 kilometers per hour, it has a range of up to 3, 000 meters. The drone is capable of carrying 1.2 metric tons of goods.
