Hold the Drone up, click the power button three times and the Drone launches from your hand so you can be flying in seconds. This has been made possible through the self hovering flight controller. This is how simple using the Micro Drone 4.0 is. Moreover it also supports automated flight manoeuvres.

Earlier we have seen a drone taking off from a submarine. Apart from this, we have also seen a drone launching a rocket. That means, in future, drones will be able to do many things beyond our imaginations. However, for the time being what we know further about a drone is it can take off from another drone.
A team of researchers are using drones to map out communities and find interactions in order to find reasons of the contraction of P. knowlesi from macaque monkeys to human. Successful steps have already helped to gather GPS information, and the researchers are hopeful of tackling the problem soon.

Currently, the European Space Agency (ESA) is in the process of developing autonomous spaceships. However, the agency requires huge amount of data for simulation purposes, so that it can later tweak the artificial intelligence accordingly. For this purpose, it is collaborating with Parrot AR.Drone creators to launch an app and crowdsource data from users.
