As someone who has been into ultralight aircraft in the past, I think this is actually pretty cool.
Ultralight flying has weight and speed requirements (as well as fuel) and no pilot's license necessary [1]. I believe that if one of these type of aircraft could get into the ultralight category, it would be a positive. I'd bet there would be fewer crashes/deaths in these drone type of aircraft than a conventional ultralight (which resemble anything from a hanglider or parachute with a propeller attached to an actual airplane).
