Hong Kong's low-altitude economy has achieved another significant milestone with the launch of the first project using a high-payload unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) weighing approximately 150 kilograms for non-traditional operations. The UAV, which can also increase its payload, brings new possibilities to construction site operations. Since the SAR government launched the 'regulatory sandbox' in March 2021, over 20 projects have entered regular and large-scale operation, including UAVs for building facade cleaning, infrastructure inspection, and logistics transport.
