Payload 2kg with a minimum flight time of 20min with throttle <=80%
Space underneath drone for package delivery system

Possible improvement parts:

Frame change to a HexaCopter (6 Motors - Can maybe use the current motors and buy two more)
New flight computer VOXL2, Pixhawk 6C, 6X or 6X with RPi compute module.
NVIDIA Jetson Orin™ NX 16GB -> Will have support for 22.04 in Jetpack 6 release in Q3 2023.
