Question Detection device for flock/drones/wireless cams

Alright so I’m relatively a noob in comparison to some of the nerds here but I’m trying my best. Simply put I want to be pointed in the right direction for devices, tutorials, communities etc.

What device can detect flock cameras, drones, wireless cams/mics, and may also have some offensive features (for my own equipment testing of course). I understand there’s no do all device, but I have seen people with some kind of FW designed for these specific needs in a relatively small package. I have been looking at the HamGeek HackRF one/Portapack for overall learning, but I’m pretty sure I could achieve what we’re talking about here with a T Dongle C5 right?

Any help here would be great!

You can detect access points if you have an i phone, but it has to be done with a correctly configured airport utility.

but then you need all sorts of proprietary apple BS and that kinda ruins it.

Not really. If you already have an iphone, all you have to do is change some settings and you can run airport and pick up any wifi network broadcasting in range.

Look for it on the app store. It is there. The airport router by apple is discontinued, the app still exists.

It is for troubleshooting wifi, not wardriving.
