And get fined all the joys that would go along with:

1) intentionally destroying a police car

or worse

2) killing a police officer (see what happens if you shoot a police dog)

Yeah, because they'd definitely find out who sent the drone up. No possible way to hide that. A drone is like a fingerprint in that way!

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, but yeah, if they got the drone you made, it would be pretty damn easy to find out that it was /you/ that made it.

1) You're manufacturing your own MEMS for gyros and accels [no].

2) Sparkfun started accepting cash at their non-existent retail location [no].

Your drone is a flying dataset full of things pointing at your credit card and your home address.

So good luck with that.
