Thanks for all the options, Amazon, but can you explain why I have three different options for free shipping? Which one do you think I'll choose, hmm??Anonymous B joined in and replied with this 11 years ago, 4 minutes later[^] [v] #547,732
Choose the free No-Rush option. It is more enjoyable.

They were never intended for large distances, they were to deliver to people who live close to Amazon warehouses. If they ever get the FAA to approve it and go through with it I live close enough to an Amazon warehouse for 15 minute delivery.

Same for me. However with yesterdays successful test of a Gyrocopter to deliver mail to the front lawn of the White house - my money is now on Gyrocopter's. Just need to install a trap door on my roof that opens up, to allow a drop via rope with release.

The thing is, the pilot is required to be within sight range of the drone so they might as well just walk it to the doorstep themselves.

$2500 drones which are more toys then anything else, are usually line of sight because of frequencies and limited control transmitter power.
Of course expensive systems can over come this limitation.

Well no shit, that applies to recreational drones. Clearly these would not be recreational which is why they're trying to get approval from the FAA to do it.

Yes, I read it, and that's why Amazon is still working with the FAA before they can do it. What part of what I wrote did you not understand, retard? And what part of "preliminary" do you not understand? There are no rules yet for drone deliveries, obviously the FAA will either let them eventually in which case that rule will obviously not apply to deliveries or the FAA is just gonna flat out say no. We'll see which way they go.

Just admit that you don't understand the word "preliminary" and that you don't have a clue about what Amazon is trying to do. Or did you not even read the whole article?
“The FAA needs to begin and expeditiously complete the formal process to address the needs of our business, and ultimately our customers,” Amazon's vice-president of global public policy, Paul Misener, told the Guardian. “Without approval of our testing in the United States, we will be forced to continue expanding our Prime Air R&D footprint abroad.”

FAA has a history of taking years to make changes to keep up with technology. Wot wood be simple location to inches of aircraft for instance. Lots of issues complex issues with drones will end up with volumes of rules. That said they have recently allowed drones for commercial use under strict guidelines.
The mostly line of sight solution only requires use of current cell towers or as Airforce - Satellites - And there is film of a ape throwing a stick to take down a drone. Kids can toss rocks at them. Bee bee guns to shoot them down. Hawks going to attack them when drones enter their air space.
And of course Amazon can fail as it recently did with Amazon Fire Phone.
