Deuce Drone plan:
Deuce Drones LLC has developed apps and hardware to interact with stores and customers to develop this unique delivery service. Similar to other delivery apps, customers can simply download the app from Deuce Drones LLC and then begin placing orders at participating locations within the city.

When an order is placed, the app will alert the store with approximate time that the drone will be ready for liftoff, so cold or hot items can be packaged in a timely manner. Customers will then be notified of an approximate arrival time so they will be prepared to retrieve the items from the landing zone upon arrival.

But where will the drone land? That’s up to the customer.

“When you sign up through the app, we will ask you for a recommended landing area,” said Ross. “Then you have the ability to say the back part of your home has no trees, or you can say the driveway is the best place. The other thing we’re doing as part of our business model is when you sign up you will receive from us a mat that has your special customer code on it, and whenever you order you can lay it out, or you can leave it out if you want, but that tells the drone exactly where to land on your property.”


The only difference to yours is that the store will not need a landing pad - Deuce Drones will operate from the roof

No need to knock, it just comes down on the assigned pad, and grabs the
package ... not really that big of deal from an engineering standpoint.

... it already has coordinates, and flies to destination and
releases package on pad at destination.

UPS is still hand loading the basket for their drones.

... but I'm sure it will be automated fairly soon


It's nice to have a lot of horsepower in the engine room but you need some in the wheelhouse too.
