With the Tile product, in the big city with a lot of people, cell phones, I-Pads, other devices. A percentage will have the Tile app running.

If you misplace something with a Tile on it, all of those device can report it location.

Out in the northwest 40, just you.
I assume your phone or device with the Tile app running will help, if you get half way close.

Pressing the deal to have the lost Tile make a noise would help-
IF
Low wind noise, or other noise.
But I doubt for more than 30 meters / 100’ and that would be a quiet day.

But sure could help.

I don’t like to have Wifi turned on with the phone or I-Pad, unless needed.
To old, I think it will run up my bill.
Know it runs down your battery.

I figure a Tile on a drone would not be anywhere near a surefire location deal.
But it just might work.

Like if you were just a short distance from the missing drone, and the drone was hidden by crop. Like in a late summer corn field.

A drone in a cornfield has a 50% chance of being run over by a combine with a eight row head and dual tires on the combine.
Not very good odds.
Throw in grain cart traffic. Don’t bet the farm on it not getting run over.
