I would stick to 4K video if you want the best resolution on YT.

if you are using 4k then sometimes you need to give it some time before the 4k portion of the video is finally uploaded since it's only showing in 1080p for now.
 
Looks totally fine to me. You already have 1080 transcoding in place, but as mentioned, 4K makes a huge difference, but also, of course, to file size, which increases x4 along with the resolution. And yes, set that 4K30 or 4K60 in the drone settings, and later in your project and output / render settings in the editor..

Also, youtube sometimes do a 1080P or 4K at an enhanced data rate for channel, or premium members (see 'enshitification'), which needs to be chosen specifically from the drop down settings, although it doesn't look like that is applied here.

I have found, generally, that You Tube will not be available at 4K until about 24 hours after published. The sample you have submitted is only 1080p whenI click on the "HD" red button. I also pay for Vimeo, which publishes at full rez immediately.
