I'd say this is pretty on-topic: http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/2014/09/30/new-jersey-man-accused-of-shooting-down-neighbors-remote-control-drone/
Hope it's not OP. |

When did every RC plane., copter, glider, or hover toy suddenly take on the buzz word name "drone"?

Who said anything about mocking you? Wouldn't mocking another member violate the rules we should be abiding by? My point is, if you aren't coming up with your own ideas or sharing info...I guess on more of a regular basis... don't be condescending toward mine or anyone else's. Aside from that, this thread was initially about stealing someone else's property during a non-SHTF/WROL situation. And we should cut that idea some slack? -Emt1581 |

Wow, the poster asks a relevant questions and gets all kinds of responses from "reported" to put up giant nets over your property. Nice. (I have no doubt putting nets all over your property to capture songbirds, migratory birds, various game animals and wildlife, impeding air space as well as entangling other peoples private property is not within the law or your zoning regs, however I won't report that post at this time.)

Air models are not usually water proof. They even have gps safe circles to avoid crashing in higher priced ones. Look into cheap rc glyders and you could clip it with one. Your going to have to damage it to bring it down most likely.

Why, oh why, do people feel the need to post non contributing posts. This is NOT the fu$%^ng GD. This is a TECH forum. The rules regarding privacy and perceived threats to your life and property vary greatly by state and county. It pays dividends to do some specific research. If the info is not easily found online a quick call can often get you what you need to know. Last winter I noticed someone from a neighboring sub division flying a quad copter with camera over homes in our area. This happened quite a few times a night for a week or so. Easy solution; I called the sheriffs office. I explained the situation and asked what recourse I have. They politely informed me that shooting it down or at it were a very bad idea and they would be happy to look into it. In the end it was my HOA (I know, why you hate freedom bro.) that made it go away and spanked the owner. TLDR version: It doesn't have to be a big deal. Edited for hypocrisy. |

In other than congested areas it’s only 500 feet above the surface, while over open water or sparsely populated areas no altitude requirement is given.

In other than congested areas it’s only 500 feet above the surface, while over open water or sparsely populated areas no altitude requirement is given. Pilots are requested to stay at least 500 feet away from any person, vessel, vehicle, or structure. View Quote First off, it was the OP that was wanting to take down somebody's "drone" not me. and I believe by "drone" he meant someone flying a quadcopter with a video camera around his yard. So, I am not sure what the rules regarding a "fixed wing" aircraft has to do with that. However, if a neighborhood of houses is considered a "congested area" and you want to fly your quadcopter 2,000' over my house, go for it. but if you are using it to peep into my daughters bedroom, or snoop around my house and property, then yea, I might have a problem. However, perhaps in New Hampshire it's copacetic. Maybe because I am a Texan or the way I was brought up, but I would not consider buying a quadcopter with a video camera and flying it around my neighbors yards to "check things out" any more than I would just hop the fence and walk around their property. I don't peep in windows, either. YMMV |
