I think the UAV types should be split into categories something like …
Commercial:
Experimental
Amateur
Size .. over under weight categories.
type … front prop, rear prop winged, roter etc.
use … any constructive thoughts in this area.

I think a Commercial, and Experimental are all that is needed. Amateur could be put into Experimental since they are usually garage built hobby planes.
I think weight, noise, and engine type for subsections. Turbines are loud I wouldn't want them buzzing the neighborhood skies.
Another further subsection could be "sensor package".
Do we really want video cameras and thermal imaging sensors hovering over our backyard taking pictures? I don't. If it's just taking the temperature I wouldn't care, but if it's taking pictures that's a little more intrusive. So sensor types is a definite category imo.
