About

About Flytrex Sky2

Sky2 is an octocopter developed around larger suburban food and retail orders. It carries up to 8.8 lb and operates within a four-mile service radius, enough for combinations such as two large pizzas, sides and drinks in one mission. Redundant propulsion and autonomous flight logic support repeated operation over established delivery zones under Flytrex’s regulated service.

An order enters through the Flytrex or a connected merchant application and is loaded at the local operating site. The aircraft flies to the customer’s property, hovers over a clear delivery area and lowers the package by tether while remaining airborne. Remote personnel supervise the fleet and handle exceptions while the aircraft conducts the routine flight automatically. Sky2 entered commercial use with Little Caesars in Texas in 2026.
