They already are, but the new nomenclature might be confusing people. RC-helicopter and RC-plane shoots aren't uncommon (with helicopters being far more prevalent), sometimes with first-person-view flying, which is what they're doing in the wired article as well. The term 'drone' doesn't really have a clear meaning other than the pilot is not inside the vehicle. It doesn't refer to the formfactor (fixed wing / helicopter / multirotor) the flight controls (line-of-sight / FPV / autonomous) or even weight classifications.
