A developing two-arm drone concept that supports, cuts, and carries individual avocados to a padded receiving tray.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-01 issue.

Field notes

H1 R2 is presented as a design build, not a flight-tested prototype. Its proposed four-rotor frame measures 1,440 mm across, keeps the body outside dense foliage, and sends two separate tools inward: one supports the fruit while the other handles the stem. The stated working envelope is 250–350 g fruit with up to 800 mm of tool reach. The site proposes bench and tethered tests before a limited orchard pilot targeted for 2027.
