I saw this one and I am really curious how large these are because the photos make them look tinyYet more VTOL drones. These are made by Nanjing Aerospace National Intelligent Equipment Co (南京航天国器智能装备有限公司).

Me too. I looked but couldn’t find any image that gives a visual reference.
They look big, like human sized. You can kinda tell the size via the tiles on the floor on the 3rd pic.
The tangent started before me.

HH-100 unmanned transport has completed high-speed autonomous taxiing, which included lifting the nose wheel. First flight is fast approaching.

A co-axial rotary reconnaissance UAV with an interesting use case. The UAV is designed to be deployed by missiles fired from manned platforms. It's intended to conduct advance reconnaissance of a target area and beam that information back to attacking platforms.
Due to the limited range of sensors carried by attack aircraft (fighters, bombers, etc.), it's difficult to conduct reconnaissance of a target area in advance of arrival. To solve this problem, special missiles carrying recon UAVs are fired from an attack aircraft at a distance of 300km from the target area. These special missiles have built-in rotary launchers, which deploy the recon UAVs when they arrive over the target area. Once deployed, the UAVs form an autonomous network and carry out target identification, surveillance and evaluation and send the obtained information back to attack aircraft.
