I think drone based delivery is a solved problem by now, thanks to the very rapid developments in the last 2 years ?
Some of the drones are now even fiber optic guided and thus resistant to jamming by the competition!
- tonyarkles 2y agoLol depending on what you’re delivering and whether you want the aircraft back to fly a second mission or not. For civilian drone delivery there are some use cases where you can squeeze out a small profit doing drone-based delivery as opposed to conventional truck-based delivery, but it’s not a sure thing yet in general. A Transit van can cover a huge number of miles for a relatively small capital investment. Covering the same number of miles with a drone (even factoring in that you aren’t constrained by the road network and can do straight line flights) for lower cost is… hard.
