Okay, then how about this one:

Throughout the chassis/engine rules, they seem to forget about small/micro
rotordrones (the kind that fit into the palm of your hand). That's the
only way I can reason that under one of the fuel entries, the list that all
rotor drones can carry that same 120 liters of fuel. From the micro to the
mansized. And within that drone, would there be room for the engine, the
sensors, that CF of cargo space that you allegedly have, and any other
goodies that would come standard?
