What I want to know is how does it ring the door bell ๐Ÿคฃ And what stops the little thieving Bโ€™s from running off with your parcel and the drone as a bonus ๐Ÿค” Or leave the parcel in the green waste recycling bin if your not in ( and yes that has happened to me on 2 separate occasions) ๐Ÿฅด ---

Valid points, i can only imagine that all prime owners will be set up with a dock of some kind for the drone to land/deliver to/on secure and safe from the little tea leafs, that said nothing is going to stop the drones being shot down ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜‚ ---

Thereโ€™s no way one of those could spend 5 minutes force-stuffing a large jacket through the letterbox โ€ฆ as was managed by a Hermes delivery driver yesterday! Edit: I was curious, and accessed my security cameraโ€™s storage to determine how long it actually took him. ๐Ÿ˜† ---

No, no, no - Prime members have been asked to paint โ€œIm a Prime member, honest guvโ€ on their roof to aid the blimp. We get little plastic Action Man type parachutes ( like when i was a kid ) to aid their decent into oblivion. Still, its better than DHL - for us expats it stands for Drop, Hide, Lose - ---

Iโ€™m still at a loss to comprehend the usefulness of domestic deliveries by drone when cheaper and far more efficient methods have been in existence for years. The people who dream up these madcap ideas are obviously not engineers but rather someone with to much time on their hands whom thought Bladerunner was a documentary. Nidge. ---

Well surely to comply with the CAA drone code this would not be cost effective as the pilot would have to have VLOS of the point of delivery, in which case wouldnโ€™t it be easier for the pilot to post the item? ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ ---
