I think his point was that the drone is unlikely to carry much more force than hail.<p>F = MA<p>Thus, even though the drone is heavier than hail, it won&#x27;t likely be going as fast as hail (such that its deceleration when hitting the helicopter would be less significant).<p>Thus, the comparison is apt. If we had 3 lb hail, it would have much more force than most 3 lb drones bc of its speed.
