Nick Posted 26 July 2016 Posted 26 July 2016 It'd be great not to need my shotgun traps or buy clays anymore.

Trav Le Bleu Posted 26 July 2016 Posted 26 July 2016 On a serious note, I don't think the elite rich will be happy until they've entirely replaced thier workforces with robots, creating a poor unemployable underclass. The only problem with this - and it seems blatantly obvious to me - when this is achieved, who will be able to buy anything they have to sell?

Finnegan Posted 26 July 2016 Posted 26 July 2016 Uhm, surely there'd be a massive influx of crime? I don't want my shit delivered by a robot unless that robot is packing serious heat. And I don't want robots packing serious heat flying above my head. Basically, **** this. Terrible idea. Bin.

Print it with the drone printing 3D printer. Its all about the batteries. And those drone catching drones they have at the airport. How much fun would drone-jacking be?
separator Posted 26 July 2016 Posted 26 July 2016 Yodel have been delivering parcels by air for years, they normally just chuck it over your garden fence.

fuchsntf Posted 26 July 2016 Posted 26 July 2016 Sorry for the pun...It wont get off the ground..!!! Including me...too many lobbies against. Noise, safety, security, privacy just for starters. wonder also what the insurance would cost...midair crashes, dropping out of the skys causing injury. Counter opposition causing dogfights Birds attacking them, which they will.... What a tool for terrorists..If air licenses are nilly willy given out.

Yeah because drivers from fed ex or wherever don't make a noise, don't affect your safety or security and keep everything they see private.

At least to begin with. Computer network at work goes down, IT guy works out the problems tells everyone the part will be here in two hours and they are back up and running same day....
MPH Posted 26 July 2016 Posted 26 July 2016 Although i am looking forward to seeing the website of all the crazy photos/ images they captiured...
Guest Sharpe's Fox Posted 26 July 2016 Posted 26 July 2016 Pikeys will start shooting them down with or without the parcel.
Fox92 Posted 26 July 2016 Posted 26 July 2016 Surely crime will go up. People make drones that can intercept other drones (though I'm aware Amazon will use big drones).... but then if does actually make it to my house, they leave it in my garden? Wtf.
