So, If I shoot down one of these multi-thousand dollar drones, can I keep it?

This will never happen. The logistics will NEVER work for this. There are far too many problems it will create than ever solve.

Even though this commercial is an over-dramatizing humorous parody, it is closer to the truth than anyone wants to think about drones:

How fitting that Charlie Rose would report on drones!

I imagine then insurance costs alone will make this a non-starter.

I don’t think I would want to invest in a company run by people who think this is a good idea.

These delivery drones are silly. But a delivery self driving robot using the streets is feasible.

Useful in some applications, not so much in city deliveries....flight level < 400ft, VFR only. Estimate less than 60% of VFR hours in mid-latitudes. Bad wind forecasts, wind gusts, etc. will create failures, liabilities.

Thugs will shoot them down to get the packages.
