I've seen one too many DJI drones fly away for no reason to trust in any off the shelf hardware. I'm sure the military has the forethought to design a bulletproof system (sorry for the pun). Systems that don't compete for resources that don't exist. Systems that don't crash (literally) and have multiple redundant failure modes while identifying software and system faults from the logs.
We haven't even come to the part where the different system sensors with different voltages and different communication interfaces all need to be translated.
You go ahead and fly around with your Arduino, just don't be surprised when you become a smitherino.
