That's nonsense, if you can get a pair of fucking RPGs, I'm sure you can get a drone loicense too. It's what Grumman said. Ages ago saw a video of a V-22 Osprey hover test where it was tethered to the ground, too. Or here's a UH-1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tfnYCG8fGM
Why is it chained up? Are they afraid a nigger is going to steal it?
It's a test. You tether it so that if anything goes wrong during testing, you still have it under control.
Saw some comments saying it's essentially red tape and since it's the UK, that seems very likely.
It's something like they can't legally have it fly around but because it's chained to the ground it's in a loophole.

Please remember this is the UK, the same country who's police included a rusty spoon in a picture of confiscated dangers weapons...
