It's illegal here in the UK to operate aeronautical mobile but I
understand that in the US and other countries it's allowed with the
permission of the PIC (pilot in command).

But this is an unmanned craft, so where do we stand with that..?


An aircraft is ruled by the law of its country of registration but
operation is ruled by the authority in whose airspace the aircraft
is currently located. It may thus be legal to fit a transmitter in
the USA to a USA registered aircraft but it must be switched off
before entering european airspace.
