- palata 3y agoTo be pedantic, a quadcopter is a drone, but a drone is not necessarily a quadcopter.
- dragonwriter 3y agoTo be even more pedantic, "quadcopter" is a statement about airframe layout, and "drone" is a statement about control, and neither necessarily implies the other. You can have a non-drone quadcopter [0] or a non-quadcopter drone [1].
