title_body: Can Reinforcement Learning be used for UAV waypoint control?
upvoted_answer: Reinforcement Learning can be used for UAV control. This video details a method to use RL for quadcopters.
  
  In summary, you program a model of your UAV that effectively simulates your drone.
  You then create a policy and value neural network to control your drone and train it using your simulation.
  
  I'm pretty sure similar methods are used in zipline's autonomous drone delivery network that manages 65% of the entire country of Rwanda's blood deliveries.
