The 1,200-page FAA Reauthorization Bill posted by the House early
Saturday morning includes a section titled "Preventing Emerging Threats"
that would give the Department of Homeland Security and FBI the right
to track and down drones that they deem a "credible threat" to a "covered facility or asset."
Seems to me they already have that authority.
Quadcopters are a relatively new type of radio-controlled flying device, mostly for hobbyists. They are strong enough to lift a camera, which allows for amazing videos and photos. But this ability also makes them controversial.

drone deliveries at golf course

"He's explained to them how much cheaper a drone is when compared to the price of a beverage cart.
Palmiscno has also heard from the neighboring softball complex, whose organizers are open to drone deliveries from his course's restaurant. Palmiscno envisions athletes sitting around after a game, drinking beer, and having food dropped from a drone."
I still think of this as a gimmick. How does the drone know who's getting the delivery? Can someone reach up to the drone and get sliced and diced? Can they steal the drone? I have lots of questions still.
