I used to be a drone hunter like you, but then I took a rotor blade to a knee

I hope that doesn't hurt to do. it's cool as hell to see but I'm unaware of how many rotor blade impacts a hollow bird bone can take

If I remember correctly the strength of these is quite low. They just spin really fast. They cannot even break skin and give you a cut afaik.

Until it becomes an arms race, blades will be made of lightweight metals that are super thin to save weight and therefore sharp, and motors be built with more torque.

Nearly every consumer drone uses plastic blades and every modern one like the whole DJI lineup uses the folding ones which hurt much less as they can tilt back when hitting something.

They can cut the shit out of you. They won't sever a finger or anything with the stock props (some aftermarket carbon fiber stuff might though), but they'll fuck up flesh.

The Mavic series has folding blades. But the Phantom series pictured has rigid blades that are stiff enough they'll fuck up flesh.

The mythbusters tested this a while ago so things might have changed but even their heavy duty camera drone with carbon fiber could not go through bones if I remember correctly. Most drones will not seriously cut you or even break skin. The one in the picture definitely will not.

Who shot the photo?

Birb v robit, I love it. Should be a tv series title or a comic.

A phantom will absolutely break skin. I flew one for years.
Lots of newer drones like the Mavic series have folding props that won't break skin, but those fixed-blade props were like getting hit with a weed-whacker.

Technology.

Well birds are robots, so prolly a lot.
