It's been strange/scary to see weapons of war running the same open-source software as flying toys that I've played with myself (the Betaflight HUD is clearly visible in some of the footage from Ukrainian drones). I guess there's always been a concern that somebody would weaponise a consumer/hobbyist drone, but that concern has been more about the potential for terrorism rather than their use in a major war.
