    I mean is there a way to trace where the drone flew from? If not, I dont see how the FAA can track down a drone operator. This was a big sized drone compared to the smaller ones

      Yeah, there’s enough eyes in the sky, digital footprints, etc to narrow it down. They’ll probably start by identifying the drone visually, then getting a subpoena for Amazon for purchases matching that. Mix that with satellite imagery and radars in the area, they can probably spot exactly where it took off from. Then it’s on to traffic cameras from that and dude is cooked.

    It’s hilarious to me that the drone had lights on it. Probably no one would have ever noticed it was there with it being dark and the stadium being so loud, but the idiot left the lights on it.

      It looked like a decently sized drone. On a lot of the newer ones, the lights are built in and not truly detachable. On mine you’d have to remove the arms to not have them on it.

    My cousin is super anal about people flying drones. He actually flys drones for a living, doing land surveys, agricultural evaluations, etc. He went to school for 4 years to get his degree and licensure and he hates that people can just buy drones and do stupid shit like this. He thinks it should be a minimum 40 hour class to get a recreational drone license in order to buy a drone.

    It would dissuade people from buying drones and doing stupid things and it would teach people who actually want to fly drones all the things they need to not make mistakes like this.

    If you pay attention to recent events we may be living through a short time period of the drone wild Wild West. The military and terrorist applications for drones are becoming increasingly clear, Ukraine/Israel for example.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if in a few years it required a license and a background check to buy a drone in the US.
