Comment on New details on F-16, drone collision in banned Arizona airspaceparent

Not saying it would happen but this would be a pretty trivial thing to ban and identify people using controllers.

It’s trivial to build your own with some basic soldering skills. I’m curious to see how this shakes down over the coming decades.

I built some non-compliant (also non-autonomous) 450g drones before the 250g weight limit. They’re only for acrobatics at treetop level or below. It’s kind of silly IMO that this style is required to have a transponder now. This is speaking as someone who flies planes.

For the store bought ones that require no forethought - I am glad those are regulated.
