Aw, I was hoping for less than $50k. That's still pretty expensive!

Plus, they probably don't even come with payloads, so that will add additional cost.

Fill it with white powder and the reaction will cause more damage than a bomb would have caused.

Can you imagine the panic a consumer drone would cause if it flew over the White House and dropped baking soda on it.

Honestly, one high-profile incident like that would probably be enough to get civilian ownership of drones banned across the country.
