I would think that drones could be the answer to delivery in places where very few deliveries are being made in an area of several hundred square miles. With charging stations being able to be strung out, delivery to one or a few locations that were hundreds of miles from a distribution center could make sense vs. sending a truck that distance to make a single, or a couple deliveries. I'm assuming that a carrier could be designed that housed perhaps a dozen envelop sized packages and delivered them in a specific order.

I don't know precisely how far the drone can fly before needing a recharge, but in that it can automatically land, recharge, and continue it's delivery, if a single, or few deliveries were hundreds of miles from the distribution center it might require several recharges in making one or a few deliveries, but it could do it with automated routing in which it left the distribution made it's delivery and pick up, if applicable, and returned to the distribution center and recharged in time to be recharged and loaded for the next days delivery. Essentially it could be working 24/7 with nothing than loading and/or unloading it, and setting up its automated routing once a day, all else would be done by the drone itself. It's not going to replace manual delivery where virtually hundreds of deliveries are being made in a few sq. miles inside a typical city.
