Abstract
A drone is a machine which functions either by the remote control of a navigator or pilot or autonomously, that is, as a self-directing entity. Their largest use is within military applications. This machines are smaller than piloted vehicle and so are less visible or invisible (furtive). The goal of our study is to show, on a commercial drone, the effect of the miniaturization. We use the Ardrone by Parrot, and different attacks are performed, from the DOS attack to the illegal takeover of the drone. Attacks are explained and detailed, to allow the readers to replay the attacks.
