I think it is: "Unless it has a camera" (most of those do however).

LOL, well I bike a lot...

For me it is all curiosity, seemed interesting to write an auto-pilot
and that works very well.
It can be used for anything from rescue to warfare (drop a bomb).

This is the problem, there is ALWAYS someone who does bad things with things,
did you know you can kill somebody with a fork?
So now we forbid all forks (after the knives that is), same for
so many other things.
It is the wrong way to go about it all.
Also it is money sucking.
I got my radio ham license when it was free, after that now I have to pay like 30 Euro a year,,,
The drone license is not free, and in a few years your drone needs an ID transmitter on the drone AND one on the remote,
so they can find where it is and the whereabout of who controls it.
If Russia did  it  it would be called ....?
Total control state, revolution is needed, I have the tech, much more than this.
You see people rising up against the total lockdown, big party thing in France I just did read, 2500 people together
in some hall, they chased the police out!

Nice system, nicads (I still have one that works) are a bit from the past these days,
lipos work great for my drone, I tried liion (with power converter) but that does not fly longer.
Then I tried a wire, and sure you can keep the thing in the air indefinitely:

  note the thin coax over the fence, I send several hundred volt at 100 kHz, transformed it down at the drone,
  the high volts at low current allows for a thin light coax.

Position of the drone using differential GPS is within a few cm stable.

  with scope :-)

The drone side, the high voltage is transformed down by a ringcore transformer to 7.5 V 10A 
the high current rectifier diodes are on heatsinks in the air flow from the propellers:

Designing 'tronics and playing with 'tricety I started at 4 years old,
became my job at some point.
It is fun.
