3 min read
Reginald Denny, a British-born silent film actor, built the world's first mass-produced drone. His Radioplane OQ-2 company delivered nearly 15,000 target drones to the US Army by the end of World War II. Denny formed the Radioplane Company in 1939 after developing a radio-controlled prototype, eventually selling his interest in 1948.
