Not much good if you only have a backyard rather than an expansive garden.

Yeah this isn't going to take off

Someone with their feet on the ground will make it disappear again. It could be a workable concept, but too much hassle for the gain.

This old chestnut again. Amazon's been barking up this tree for years, nothing more than a marketing ploy imo.

It will take off and work. But your talking a decade + mainly for regulation purposes.

I can see all the chav's and ned's getting there air rifles and slingshots ready for when these go live.

Cosimo · 4 Dec 2015 at 20:05

It will be in their dreams forever here.

So many things to go wrong between take off and delivery. How long would it be before the odd scally wag is out in their garden shooting down amazon drones.

Edit: Damn beaten to it

And what the chances of parcels being dropped in the middle of the road in front of the house....

Order something cheap - get several hundred pound drone for free! Winner!

StriderX · 4 Dec 2015 at 20:22

Amazon should just buy tesla instead.

To the drone that'll look like a perfect helipad...

And getting in trouble because of all the cameras that will catch them doing it.
