Amazon recently made its first UK drone drop with a customers order. This technology is going to grow and grow but I think we will also see greater regulation, even licenses. As ever it is those who abuse the technology, infringing on privacy or flying next to commercial aircraft, who spoil it for everyone. The cat is most certainly out of the bag and drones are here to stay.

@Cleanenergy What do we know about the package that was delivered? How far away from the delivery point from the pickup point?

Amazon kept it secret for a week. Why?
