Drone delivery hub

A drone delivery hub is the home base for a fleet of small delivery drones. Workers load packages, the drones take off, fly to a customer and come back to recharge.

Hubs are often placed at a big store or a distribution center, so the goods are already on site. That puts many hubs close to houses.

Neighbors care about how many flights a hub sends out. Amazon has asked for up to 1,000 flights a day from one site in Connecticut, which is why towns now argue about where hubs may go.
