Amazon says it has been given approval from regulators to fly drones farther and deliver goods to more customers.
The company says the Federal Aviation Administration has given it permission to operate its drones beyond the sight on its operator, allowing the expansion of drone delivery.
The company says it has developed a system to allow the drone to detect and avoid other things in the air to improve safety.
Fuck this timeline
A small drone like this will make home deliveries even more ecologically advantageous, far better than combustion engines or 3 ton electric vehicles
Drones are loud as fuck and have a host of other issues. People will fucking riot if they have to start listening to drones fly around all day.
An eco friendly option that actually makes sense is cargo bikes. Even land based drone delivery makes more sense than flying drones. This shit is probably never happening.
