The food package weighed around 2.5kg was picked up from a restaurant at one end of the F-9 park and was loaded into the drone’s storage bag. The drone then flew to the other end of the park to deliver the package where it was collected by another rider. The food was then distributed among children invited from ‘Sweet Homes’.
