1. A drone is probably several thousand times cheaper than a helicopter.

2. Another bad idea

When someone rigs these things with guns, bombs, or the drones themselves explode, we may reconsider them.

4. Maybe you're not aware of it, but drones are pretty small

Rigging them with a significant bomb would keep them from taking off. They're designed to carry very compact cameras.

3. They're a lot safer than helicopters, too.

"Indeed, helicopter crashes have taken more lives on film sets than any other type of accident in modern times. Since 1980, 33 film and TV workers — nearly one a year — have been killed in helicopter accidents around the world, 14 in the U.S. and 15 more for American companies shooting abroad."
