Rather, a one-time demonstration of a quadcopter flying from the restaurant to an open rooftop. It tackles none of the problems of actually delivering products via drone in a city, namely, flight safety, navigation, and delivering to actual apartments which are not likely to have nice open rooftops.
As an ad for the pizza company, it works well though given how much this video seems to have been shared.
- hellbreakslose 12y agoStraight to the point my friend. I completely agree with you! Also there was no demonstration of they input their data in an automated system that guides the drone through a GPS... It could just be them guiding it with a remote control just to create the Ad.

I was exhibiting at a UAV conference back in November, at there was a guy from Hootsuite exhibiting for the conference next door. He spent quite some time trying to convince me that we should be working with pizza companies on an advertising campaign involving UAV delivered pizza. He was right, it's a good 'viral' ad idea.
