Technically, it already is for outdoor use in the UK, unless the person flying it is not the person looking at the first person view, as the pilot has to keep visual contact with the aircraft. Also if you use one for anything commercial you are required to hold a civil pilots licence.

As soon as I saw the Parrot AR Drone I imagined putting a small stripped down pellet gun on it.
I bet AR Drone will mysteriously become illegal soon.
