TAP-J team's successful package delivery during the Japan Innovation Challenge event in Hokkaido, Japan Oct 2019.
The package was delivered about 1.3km and placed 3.2m from the dummy (the event regulations specify it must be 3m to 8m from the dummy). The delivery was done autonomously except for the takeoffs and landings which were done in PosHold mode.
The vehicle is an EAMS Lab (aka EAMS Robotics) Hexacopter with a CubeBlack flight controller running ArduPilot Copter-4.0.0. The winch is a "Daiwa Winch" (ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-daiwa-winch.html). SkyHopper-Pro 2.4Ghz telemetry system provided video and telemetry during the mission.
