Abstract: The invention relates to a hybrid drone for transporting or delivering objects 124, comprising at least one first wing 102 having an airfoil, at least one first and one second longitudinal drive unit 104, wherein the first longitudinal drive unit 104 and the second longitudinal drive unit 104 are arranged on the at least one wing 102, an object-holding device 110 formed on an upper side or on an underside between the first and second longitudinal drive units 104 and for holding an object 124, and a regulating unit formed for regulating the hybrid drone, in particular the drive units, based on control signals.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a fixed wing drone for delivering objects, a takeoff and landing device for a fixed wing drone, a system made up of a drone and a takeoff and landing device, and an approach method for said system. The fixed wing drone comprises wing control surfaces, at least two drive units, at least one tail assembly, at least one structure element which protrudes to the rear and is accessible from the rear, an object holding device, a receiving unit, and a control unit. The takeoff and landing device permits a fixed wing drone to land silently on a vertical structure.
