Drones have been touted as a clean, fast way to appease our demand for quick deliveries. Drone delivery operations could indeed be more environmentally friendly than trucks, according to two recent studies. But that depends on how and where they are deployed.

Images collected from drones flying to 1,300 feet above Genting's oil palms help the company spot fires in remote and inaccessible areas. It's part of a technology drive catapulting palm oil, the world's most-consumed vegetable oil, from dependence on manual labor to becoming one of the fastest-growing markets for commercial unmanned aircraft.

Preparation for flight testing has commenced for a high altitude, long endurance unmanned aerial vehicle (HALE UAV).

The new policy promotes "responsible, appropriate and effective" use of drones.

Whether you're flying a manned or an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), the laws of physics are the same, and most, if not all, risks are also the same.

Things are looking up as the drone industry is expected to reach $100 billion by 2020 and even up to $1.5 trillion by 2040 according to Morgan Stanley. Take a look at this six-minute video from CNBC in which David Reid gives a quick update.
