Ooooh. Now I wanna find out how I can fly over an area with a drone and make pictures like the example!

On a somewhat smaller, more theoretical note, I wonder what "a radar signal" is as far as a Wi-Fi SoC is concerned. Sounds like the wild-west, much-trickier-to-block counterpart to the old deauth packet attack. At least the FCC/etc can get shouty if needed...

Edit: Oh, right, it only goes offline if channel selection is manual. And presumably radar only uses the one band (?) so you couldn't flood it out or play cat and mouse.

Hmph, this is actually well designed. Given that this requires pretending to be a radar you might as well switch to a smaller pot of hot water and just get a 5.8GHz signal jammer.
