LY300: 300 kg Class Cargo Drone
The LY300 is the six-axis bridge between the compact 200 kg class and the eight-axis heavy lifters. It carries 230–250 kg as a working load with a 320 kg ceiling, on a 73-inch carbon fibre prop set.

The efficiency sweet spot
Six-axis 12-rotor is the least glamorous configuration in the range and, for a large share of real jobs, the most economical. It carries 230–250 kg on a smaller airframe than an equivalent eight-axis, which means less battery mass per kilogram of payload delivered.
The LY300 runs 73-inch pure carbon fibre props on A16L or H15plus propulsion — high voltage, low current, large lift reserve. The motors stay cool through a full duty cycle, which is what actually determines how many trips you get per day.
Battery configuration is where the LY300 earns its keep: four fast-charge packs for continuous turnaround, or six solid-state packs for long-endurance routes. Same airframe, two very different operating profiles.
