Is it literally just a drone with a wired connection to the controller? How does that even work? Doesn't that make for a very limited range?

I wonder how long it will be before Israel orders the United States to try to classify fibre optic cable as a controlled technology requiring permits to manufacture and distribute. It wouldn't work of course, but I wonder if they'll try anyway.
