Bloomberg witnessed a trial of the technology that took place in May using ordinary hexacopters (as seen in the gallery below). McDonald's has offered more details about the planned at least three years launch of its drone-borne fast food deliveries in US as it awaits approval from Uber . The firm said the drones, which are faster than cycle or car couriers, will drop food at designated safe landing zones, where Uber drivers would then deliver it on to customers. Uber is working with early-stage partner McDonald's to develop packages that keep food hot, and said it would take summer to establish drone deliveries in a handful of markets.
