Suicide quadcopter

Question

Quadcopter

In Oleg Divov's novel Symbionts, the following scenario was considered: a terrorist attack is committed, in which the role of explosive carriers is played by small airplanes, the details of which are printed on a 3d printer. This is followed by a ban on everything and everything and total control.

Let's leave aside 3D printers and the ban on everything and everything. I am interested in the following: what are the current obstacles to taking a powerful quadcopter, loading it with some kind of TNT/plastite/C4 and sending it to the Kremlin/synagogue/auchan?

I must admit right away that I have absolutely no idea about quadrocopters, or explosives, or terrorism in general. So don't throw poop at me, just explain to the fool.

Answer 1

It needs to be restricted and banned. Otherwise, some schoolchildren from a great mind will drop the helicopter, for example, onto a highway with high-speed traffic.
As for explosives, as I understand it, the low carrying capacity, the rapidly draining battery (you won’t fly far) and the low level of technical skills among young fighters against the state from the southern regions interfere.
In general, the idiocy of people has no boundaries. For example, with the proliferation of cheap but powerful Chinese lasers, there are already thousands of attempts to blind the pilots of aircraft landing in the United States (and there are even the first ones planted for this). Maybe they are really stupid?

Answer 2

You argue as if you can buy C4 in Auchan, and only the absence of quadrocopters has stopped the extremists so far! :)

Answer 3

There are apparently even fewer obstacles to bringing a bag of explosives into the synagogue/auchan.
At least because you don’t need to look for a powerful quadrocopter for this.

Answer 4

Do not mind it. You are more defenseless at the entrance.

Answer 5

The copter will not carry a lot of explosives. But half a liter of napalm (which can be made at home without any problems) is quite enough to make a sickly fire.

Answer 6

Quadcopters, optocopters... Why don't people like airships? If you fill it with hydrogen, then you don’t even need to put explosives on board =)

Answer 7

He will be more noticeable than a man with a bag

Answer 8

For remote casting anywhere, you can use the good old catapult. The good thing is that you can download quite a lot.

Answer 9

You have described only one of the ways of destruction. If you just sit down and think, then you can come up with a huge number of them, and many of them, including yours, can be carried out with impunity. And all sorts of bans on 3D printers, etc. etc. nothing can be solved here, because with their growth life will become unbearable.
It is necessary to educate people in responsibility for their actions and raise the level of consciousness. I see no other way for a calm and free life.
I recently heard the term "Anonymous Responsibility". That's what you should strive for.

Answer 10

There are no restrictions. Quadcopters can lift several kilograms of cargo, which is quite enough for a good terrorist attack. Here is a video in which it is implemented. In addition to the bomb, a machine gun is attached to the quadrocopter.
