The world record holder for a quadcopter drone is 224 mph. Not many drones can beat 100 mph.
According to one article I found Amazons drones can manage 50mph.
- bell-cot 1y ago5 miles at 50mph would give only Amazon 360 seconds to fix the bug that caused the first drone to crash. Or figure things out enough to get the second drone into manual override mode.
- spaqin 1y ago100mph is probably around the top speed for home built FPV quadcopters with 5 inch propellers; that's neither uncommon or expensive. Amazon's drones are probably built for efficiency though so they will go slower than that.
