Re:Lufthansa flight has near-miss with drone near Warsaw by mikeash on Tuesday July 21, 2015 @04:12PM (#9925404)
Traditional RC aircraft are extremely niche. They're expensive and hard to fly, so you need some dedication to get into that.

Quadcopters, on the other hand, can be purchased for $40 and flown by somebody with no experience. Obviously a $40 quadcopter won't be threatening airliners, but it's representative of a big change all over the spectrum.
