Study: Small Drones Create Significant Midair Risks
Embry-Riddle researchers found 21.5 percent of 192 drone flights in Daytona Beach Class C airspace exceeded FAA-mandated maximum altitudes.
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University analyzed DJI drone flights and concluded that they present an unmitigated risk to nearby manned aviation operations.

A new study by researchers at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University of flights by DJI-manufactured small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) over Daytona Beach in Florida over a 13-day period suggests many more sUAS flights are taking place than previously thought, according to the paper’s lead author.
