Here's a scarier idea, you ever see what a mylar balloon looks like on radar?
Well one great way to distract people searching for a tiny radar dot is with a really big radar dot.
So if you were to rig up a couple of those foil balloons you can get a super markets since they are really reflective in radar and can look like an object bigger than an a380 just appeared on radar they'd make excellent passive ecm radar chaff.
Keep the authorities looking for a big scary ufo that just popped into existence and is drifting around instead of a tiny balloon or your drone while you traverse the unavoidable radar regions above 500ft or so.
Bonus points if you're upwind of the control tower so it moves towards them.
Something my uncle who used to be military taught me about which was hilarious to hear the story behind lol.
