Space is one perfect shot with no second attempt. Drones are a thousand imperfect flights in dirty air. The hardness is different — not smaller.
Failure rarely arrives unannounced. Vibration trends, current creep and link decay all show up in the data before the crash — if anyone is looking.
In space programs every anomaly is investigated, documented and fed back into design. Most drone teams crash, shrug and buy a new airframe. That gap is fixable.
