Some of the other replies are apparently forgetting we're talking about it

It is indeed legal **under U.S. regulations** to operate aeronautical
mobile. But U.S. regulations cease to apply once the balloon enters the
airspace of some other country. It would appear British regulations do
not allow for aeronautical mobile operation in unmanned aircraft.

ANY aircraft.
