Draganfly is trading 5% up at $5.65 after the FAA granted a Section 44807 exemption on September 1, 2026, allowing its Heavy Lift drone platform to operate commercially above the standard 55-pound limit.

  • The approval supports heavier cargo, disaster-relief, infrastructure-inspection, and defense missions, strengthening commercialization prospects.
  • Broader technology weakness from elevated yields and oil-price concerns remains a countervailing factor.
  • Regular-session activity is positive as the stock extends its advance after rising 21.39% on August 31.
