Titled 'Towards Edible Drones for Rescue Missions: Design and Flight of Nutritional Wings,' by Bokeon Kwak, Jun Shintake, Lu Zhang, and Dario Floreano from EPFL, the paper detailed a drone that could "boost its payload of food from 30 percent to 50 percent of its mass", according to a release.for those who are unable to access food.

Whenever a drone is asked to transport anything, the bulk of what is moved is the drone. Most of them carry about 30 percent of their mass as payload, which comes in the form of 'useless' things like wings.The researchers used compressed puffed rice to design the wing of the partially edible drone.
