Delivery tests are slated for September, with plans to collaborate with the Emirates Post, DHL, Amazon, UPS, and more.

The deliverys will be performed for items that weigh less than 11 pounds. Governmental entities in Dubai are conducting trials for deliveries using drones in the coming month.
Space Autonomous Drones said it estimates the launch of the service to be between 2018 and 2019, according to Entreprener Middle East.
