All it takes is one person, firing one slug and it hitting the right spot on your copter. Even with your personal quad, would you want people shooting at it with anything? They get expensive fast, I have looked at starting my own aerial photography business, but even on the low end (DJII Phantoms) you are looking at 1000$+. When people use personal trucks/jeeps/vehicles they expect them to get shot at. They can get dinged, dented, nicked but that's part of the game.
But then you have a 1000-5000$ aerial vehicle that can be fragile enough to get damaged by airsoft guns you have a problem.
So like I said. Until they come down in price significantly and become much easier to use, I do not see a spot for them in airsoft outside of recording the match on video.

Any one that aims upwards and takes deliberate hits, slug shots at a multirotor is deliberate property destruction, not accidental. You see multirotors at many sporting events, do people don't try to take them down. If airsoft players have that attitude, then don't expect a multirotor owner like myself to video these events only to have it shot down by an idiot.
PS. Don't waste your $$$ on Phantoms, they RTF are toys. The DJI S800 and upwards if you prefer the DJI brand.
