Wow. It's amazing that they managed to take a few Arduinos and hobbyist boards, build a 100 kg drone that flew into class A airspace, could easily have destroyed a family home and its occupants, planned effectively an air display with an experimental aircraft never before seen in Europe with no telemetry, no transponder, and dodgy radio, and not even get a visit from the CAA.
I'm not surprised most of the 15 recommendations are aimed at them. This sort of thing should not happen. The photos show loose wires basically on breadboards, not at all vibration proof or indeed capable of surviving inverted flight. Frankly, I half expected this to end with a visit from quick reaction jets.
