The drones obviously don't know what it is so you have to open the box and show it to them, I had no particular problem flying to and in europe and back from barbados in 2009. In 2010 I carried my A-7 bubble sextant with me and it set off the radiation detectors when I was reentering the U.S. took about a half hour to get it straightened out. So, don't carry a sextant with radium in it.
