Remove the drone like you did with the shield
Just remove the from the game like you did the shield until you fix the ability to put C5 on it. It's not a "fun battlefield mechanic" it's an exploit and a bug and will only get worse as it gets m...

Please remove the ability to place C5 on drones. This is becoming really stupid, players are just 1 shotting tanks and vehicles.
This is not the same as placing the C4 on Quad bikes as there was equal opportunity and danger. That was fair.
But with drones, even if it gets shot down, the player using it is safe behind some container. But the chances of it getting shot down is low, people are flying it and can easily reach any vehicle.
Especially when playing breaktrhough, defending team can fly it near spawn and instantly kill any vehicle coming out. This is ridiculously one-sided and a complete advantage for the drone user who will at most only have his drone shot down. There must be equal chance, either tank dies or drone user dies (should not be able to be revived as he will be camping behind some container with team mates around)
Every tank is getting instantly killed and its a very unfair advantage for those using this exploit.
Please remove the ability to place the C5 on drones!
I agree 100% that this cheap exploit should not even be in the game and it needs to be removed asap. It's just pathetic and it's already easy enough to destroy tank's and other vehicles.

It's absolutely not an exploit.
It's always been a staple of the Battlefield experience that players will mess around with the sandbox and use items in ways the developers likely didn't even think about. It seems that people are forgetting just how fragile tanks have always been in previous Battlefield games. If you were driving a tank, any tight corner, any building, any moving vehicle or parachuting solider was a potential death sentence. A drone covered in explosives isn't a 'cheap exploit,' it's just another hazard that tank drivers need to be aware of.
If I'm not wrong, today's update has made drones easier to see and increased the size of their hitbox a little bit, but let me just say that they were not difficult to dispatch in the first place. As a gunner on a tank, or even as the driver, landing two to three hits on it with an MG will delete the drone. Let's also not forget that the mug controlling the drone is also likely doing so from a little hidey-hole somewhere, meaning they aren't doing anything to contribute to the objective while they're harassing you.
Also, just so that someone doesn't decide that I'm only saying this because I want cheap kills - I don't use C5. I've equipped it in ONE game and have maybe 4 kills with it, from strapping a jeep full of it and going full send into the side of a hovercraft. I play on console, as Casper, with an ammo box, and spend all of my time sniping. If I can take a drone out of the air with a bolt action rifle, a gunner in a tank certainly can.
