It used to be that airplanes had to keep 1000 feet of altitude over residential areas. A drone with its camera can come right up to your front door? Fly over your home, take pictures of your yard?
I can't see a future where Americans don't shoot these down
This will be a lot of fun for aviation\ATC\Medivac\police helo's\news helo's...
What i haven’t seen clearly stated is what altitude are these going to fly at? One article I saw said that Amazon were trying to prohibit all drone flights between 200-400 feet AGL and reserve that solely for Amazon. Thats a huge chunk of airspace taken away from other drone users if so. It was an older article so curious what became of it. I guess one thing is clear, we are in for a noisy future.
Low level anti-aircraft system design sounds like a fun engineering hobby
If amazon sends your package via drone and I see it, there's a high chance you aren't getting your package. Why are you still ordering from amazon
And they fly only over streets or also over your backyard?
