which means that the drone operator will be able to see ADS-B Out-equipped manned aircraft, but pilots won’t be able to see the drones.

YIKES! As usual the FAA has dropped the ball big time with these model airplanes which they call drones. Because they are so easy to fly with modern electronics every yahoo can have one. This DJI company should make this system so that the drone can not enter the 180 second distance. Instead of just showing a colored blip on a screen, the drone's electronics should restrict the drone from flying closer than the 180 second distance. That would be a safe system. Not what they describe in the story.

This system should be for the protection of the REAL airplane and it's occupants not the drone.

All well and good to be able to see ADSB out equipped aircraft, but how about the thousands of non transponder equipped aircraft that fly in the NAS everyday?
