A system for controlling flight paths of a plurality of autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (aUAVs) is provided. The system includes a control module within a region comprising a receiver-transmitter configured to receive waypoint information from aUAVs entering the region and transmit navigation commands to each aUAV in the region, and one processing element added to and provided with one aUAV configured to enter the region, the one processing element configured to transmit waypoint information for a desired path for the one aUAV through at least one waypoint in the region to the control module. The control module is configured to transmit a first command to the one processing element of a lower priority aUAV in case of a path conflict in the region between the lower priority aUAV and a higher priority aUAV and a second command to the lower priority aUAV upon resolution of the path conflict.
