They have created hundreds of millions in damage with a few thousand in drones, and have yet to be caught. While you may be angry with them, the facts hardly paint the suspects as 'idiots' just yet. Embarassing a first world nations military ability to find and disable a drone and its operator with a remote control heli is almost halarious if it wasn't indicitive of a gastly level of incompetince in drone warfare. Its hardly new.

- xupybd 8y agoShouldn’t it be possible to track the radio control back to the source?
- Piskvorrr 8y agoIf there is one. 10 WAIT 3600 20 FLY UP +200 30 FLY WEST +1000 40 FLY NORTH +1000 50 FLY WEST -1000 60 FLY NORTH -1000 70 GOTO 30 In other words, set your drone on the ground, drive off, and have it follow a preprogrammed route until batteries die. Never any radio traffic.
- herogreen 8y agoIt practice you would have a GPS on board and give absolute waypoints to take wind into account. So maybe GPS jammer in this case ? Not very practical.
- beojan 8y agoNow the aircraft don't have GPS either.
- Piskvorrr 8y agoIt would be imprecise, but if you only need to sow chaos, you don't care where precisely the drone goes. Plus you've dragged in a host of external dependencies, all hungry and some of them networked: GPS and left_pad and bcmath, oh my!
