DJI Matrice 300 RTK
The DJI Matrice 300 RTK is best-in-class as a versatile, widely adopted industrial airframe for medical delivery thanks to its RTK navigation, long endurance and modular payload bays that accept a broad range of medical sensors and cargo modules. Its mass-production supply chain and global support network make it a lower-cost, rapidly deployable option compared with bespoke delivery systems on this list, though it does not provide the end-to-end ground infrastructure offered by players like Volatus or Drone Delivery Canada.

Draganfly Commander 3 XL
The Draganfly Commander 3 XL is positioned as a purpose-built medical delivery aircraft with an enclosed cargo compartment and systems designed to support BVLOS operations and enhanced redundancy, giving it a safety and certification advantage over general-purpose platforms such as the M300. While typically higher in upfront price than mass-market frames, its out-of-the-box medical features and regulatory focus can reduce total integration and certification costs for health providers compared with creating a bespoke solution.
