It was not the weather, hon.

They might have reached the limits of their technology, possibly. These guys use one frequency for each drone. Having two thousands they will create overlapping intervernces and with an upcoming storm that has an electromagnetic field itself the bandwidth between each uses frequency might have gotten to small.

The artist creates the movement patterns and a software hardware combination then controls the drones.

Either the frequency bad used is extended or the Drones communicate with each other using shorter range transmitters.

PS: You would not believe what levels of  havok terror RC planes can create when you keep your frequency a secret to that Merc driver that got mad about a super speed homebuild jewnigger killer plane having a too obvious stupid plan...for his own good. Like here and now imagine Stucka attacks him having told everyone he'll take control while his blond sons cheering at him.
