Google wants to start delivering products with drones by as early 2017, despite the fact the Federal Aviation Administration has not yet developed a set of rules and regulations on commercial drones.

David Vos, the leader of Google's Project Wing, the team in charge of setting up drone deliveries, told an audience at an air traffic control convention that they are in the process of talking to the FAA and others regarding the drones, Reuters reports.

Drone deliveries would be carried out by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) flying under altitudes of 500 feet. Google is working to set up cellular and Internet technology to operate the delivery system.

"Our goal is to have commercial business up and running in 2017," Vos said.

Vos and his team are working on a way to make sure that Google's drones avoid other drones and aircraft, and can communicate while airborne.

"We're pretty much on a campaign here, working with the FAA, working with the small UAV community and the aviation community at large, to move things along," he added.

Vos wants a low altitude section of airspace known as "Class G" to be reserved for drones. This would keep UAVs away from most aircraft flown by humans.

Currently, Virginia is the only state in the U.S. that allows drone delivery of any kind, The Verge reports. Vos and Google want this to change within the next two years, and will continue talks with the FAA and other stakeholders.

Some drones would appear similar to drones designed for consumers, but Google said there could be other shapes and sizes too.

Google began researching drone deliveries back in 2012 and then tested out a prototype in Australia in 2014.

Amazon is also trying to get onboard with drone deliveries.
