Drone edge is not speed. It's angle.
This. I've seen so many people use a drone feed and go crazy as they think they're 2 or 3 seconds ahead of the market, they're not and they're placing bets at poor value.

The angle is what is needed and this is exactly why you won't ever see a certain angle at a certain point during any race on the TV, racing TV or Betfair live video feed.
None sarcasm - why?? Ruins it for the spectator ? Or causes problems between racecourse and the exchange ?

Not sure tbh. My personal guess is that because it would influence the betting one way or another.

Similar to the racecourses using their own drones for the TV pictures, they can all do it and it would give the viewer a much better idea of what is happening in the race.

Yet, at certain points in every race we get the same angle from some bumpy camera attached to a range rover instead of a clear overhead view.
