Ukwenziwa kobuchwepheshe bokugwema ukushayisana kuzovumela ukuba i-drones igweme ukushaya ezintweni noma ezilwaneni ngenkathi usindiza, njengezakhiwo, izigxobo ezikhanyayo, imigqa kagesi, nezinyoni ukuletha ngokuphepha iphakethe lakho ngokushesha kunanini ngaphambili.
I-drones izokwazi ukuletha amaphakheji anesisindo esingama-5 lbs. noma ngaphansi kwezinyanga ezingu-30 noma ngaphansi.

Ukuhlolwa kwamanje kuvinjelwe ekusebenzeni kwesikhashana lapho ukubonakala kuhle futhi imimoya iphansi. Ukuhlolwa kwesikhathi esizayo ukulethwa kwezimo ezinqamule, ezinomvula, kanye neqhwa kungabangela izinhlobo ezihlukahlukene ze-drone ezinhlobonhlobo zezimo zezulu.

Okunye ukucabangela ukuthi ungathola kanjani amaphakheji emnyango wakho. Amakhasimende asezindaweni zasemaphandleni anekamelo lamadroneshi ukuze afike noma ahambe ukuze alahle phansi amaphakheji kulula ukuletha kunamakhasimende ahlala ezindaweni eziningi ezisemadolobheni ezinabantu abaningi. Kumakhasimende ahlala edolobheni, esinye isisombululo esingahle sisebenzise ukusebenzisa ama-parachute ukusiza i-drones ilahle amaphakheji ezindaweni eziningi ezinabantu abaningi.
