Robot types: Drone delivery, Cargo drone. Risk band: Elevated RobotRisk index 36.9/100 (severity- and time-weighted incidents) · ranked 9 of 26 among Drones / eVTOL companies with incidents (550 tracked).

Analyst brief

Four entries span 2022 to 2026: two injury/crash incidents involving propeller strikes on bystanders (2022, 2024), one regulatory permission refusal citing noise (2026), and one operational pause across Ireland due to planning uncertainty (2026). The dominant early failure mode is physical component failure (propeller detachment/strike) causing minor injury, while the more recent entries are regulatory and operational rather than mechanical, reflecting land-use and permitting friction rather than new incident reports. The record combines press-reported injury events with regulator-driven permission and disruption entries, indicating scrutiny has shifted from mechanical safety toward siting and noise regulation over time.
