Seems like a no brainer.

Lots of threads in the past on this, pros and cons.
Generally useless unless direct LOS and closer than 20m or so.

Check this thread in full, or my post #15 with some Rotor Riot testing.

PS. Weird how both thread posted started off with just the same text "Seems like a no brainer."

Maybe better than nothing, but no, not a no-brainer (from someone who owns 6 airtags, but not on my drone)

I put an AirTag in my drone case that was placed in my wife’s car before we shipped it from FL to NY. “Watched“ the car make its way up 95, around the Washington Beltway, the NJ Turnpike, etc. Maybe it was passing cars that provided the fixes, or maybe the auto carrier driver had an iPhone, but I thought it was a great example and we’re putting them everywhere - luggage, cars, etc. We even put one in our boat before Ida came through. We noticed that the boat moved significantly, and it turns out that the Marina changed the mooring the boat was on. Interestingly, the location was shown was on land, not the water. Seems like the GPS algorithm doesn’t allow it to be in a body of water.

thankyou!

I’m not sure how the Xender link showed up in my post that was reproduced in your post - it’s not in the original.
