Speaking of Drones ....

[U201491]

the video footage they have would say otherwise. industry standard has the recording done at the receiver, not on the quad itself. the more you damage, the more you will have to replace.

Nope, just Kill it, then Kill it again then bury it.....

I am thinking something along the lines of a paintball gun but with the 'balls' filled with a sticky substance (heck maybe Karo syrup to be non-toxic) and when fired on the drone would gum up the rotors bringing it down.

Freeze the paintballs and it will tear it apart!!!

Unless out of range, then..

No joke. Ever play paintball in the freezing weather? Through winter weight BDU's I still had red welts all over my body! Extra incentive not to get hit.

Okay, so I have a good friend of 25 years that decided to order a couple of "drones" off Amazon, A dinky little one that fits in the palm, and one a bit bigger w/ camera, onboard micro sd card, $30-$60 price tags. Quad copter types with all sorts of LED's. You can believe me or not, but this guy has zero malicious intent, kid at heart. So I'm at his house the night he decides to start trying to fly these drones, and of course the initial flight he crashes one into his neighbors yard. He simply walks into the yard and retrieves his toy. It never crossed my mind that the homeowner would come busting out with guns blazing.
True, any media attention will zero in on the peeping-tom ahole types, which I feel would be an extreme minority. To me, a similar situation to where the vast majority of gun owners are labeled according to the occasional buffoon.
Not my thing, but for people that like to play with RC toys, these drones will be a lot of fun.

Still, wouldn't hurt to stock up..........
