Drone debacle

But one trial has rubbed these neighbours the wrong way, saying the noise of the machines is driving them crazy.
Statement from Wing
We are trialling drone delivery because it is a far safer, faster and more environmentally friendly way of transporting things, and the feedback we’ve received is helping us improve. Our testers love the service and want a wider variety of things delivered, and some of their neighbors want us to make the drones quieter. In response to the feedback, we’ve developed and are testing a new propeller that makes the drone quieter and also lower pitched, so the drones blend in with other neighborhood sounds.
