Zusammenfassung:	A remotely-piloted aircraft for distributing a payload to a target area is provided. The aircraft includes an enclosure, which includes a top lid covering the top, an internal compartment to store the payload, a bottom surface, and a distribution apparatus to allow the payload to pass through the bottom surface. The aircraft also includes a circuit to control the distribution apparatus, a wireless receiver, to receive commands to activate and inactivate the distribution apparatus, and one or more power sources coupled to the distribution apparatus and the wireless receiver. The one or more power sources provide electrical power to the distribution apparatus and the wireless receiver. An operator controls the aircraft and the circuit with at least one of a wireless transmitter and an uploaded program in the circuit. When the wireless receiver receives a command to activate the distribution apparatus, the distribution apparatus distributes the payload from the enclosure.
