Cambridgeshire school children tour Amazon delivery drone lab.

The image credit tells a story, reduced resolution! But we can glean a couple of things from the visit of Year 5, Steeple Morden School. Cambridge News has the story here.
The Mk 24 is an Octocopter. It has what looks like a parachute up top and I thought of interest the slightly canted motors.
Is that for yaw authority or to reduce the airflow interference between them?
Nerdy sUAS News readers will perhaps remember that we know of at least 5 US registered Mk24s from Amazon N391PA, N392PA, N394PA, N395PA and N398PA. There is no requirement in the UK for similar registrations. All of these airframes were registered between August and September 2015.
I wonder what Mk they are on now.
