They launch fireworks... pretty sure the "drone army" can use the same airspace. The drone army can be back where the boomers are and go to the elevated heights... use the current pyro around the castle if they are concerned. They might take some time to prove/comfort with these... but overall I'm pretty sure a controlled light drone is a wee bit safer than launching explosives (see the Star Wars firework bouncing down the road...)
Oh I've been hit by MK fallout back by BOG but getting hit with paper, cardboard or sparks at that point is much softer than a rogue drone zooming at my head. I just think it's going to be some time before they are sophisticated enough to keep guests safe. Hey, Disney is having trouble driving big animal floats in a lake ...... so my confidence is just not there.
I'm not convinced drones and fireworks can share closed proximity. I remember feeling the power of the old SW fireworks and don't imagine a drone flying nearby those would be able to stay on course and not be knocked around. It will take some creative work.
