Amazon delivery drone sparked fire when it crashed into Oregon field, says FAA

Amazon says that Prime Air drone test flights have never injured or harmed anyone

My favorite part: The report redacted Amazon’s name and made reference to the MK27 drone, which is the code of Amazon’s Prime Air delivery drone, according to Business Insider.

I can't find the video they're talking about.
