75km radius according to their promotional material so they won't be covering the whole country without multiple stations to load supplies from. Big contrast with Rwanda where it looks like you can serve the majority of the country from a single depot in the capital.

My guess is they'll focus on a single mountainous area initially.

I suspect longer ranges are possible with intermediary interchange stations, covering the drones in solar panels, and increasing wing span/loading capacity.

The concept is proven. Now they just need to upgrade the drones to create higher capacity.

Really impressive.

Why not? If you said you were going to build roads and put a gas station every 75 km that'd be quite reasonable. You could easily grow a network of stations outward from places that have good infrastructure.

It's do-able, but every additional station adds cost and complication, especially when you're working on the tiny margins and low volumes of developing world drug deliveries in sparsely populated areas. Serving an entire country from the capital (as they probably did in Rwanda) is pretty much the ideal case.
