On: Walmart – drone delivery to six states this year

They're remotely piloting them. That seems horribly unscalable. Not that the basic idea isn't ALREADY unscalable.

Does anybody know how they communicate with them? Is this something that's going to be burning more radio spectrum for minimal benefit?

Flying drones around all day could be a fun minimum wage job at least. Well, maybe not, i assune they look down on doing flips.

hows it less scalable than hiring delivery drivers? esp if they have large drones capable of delivering multiple packages?
