    My new quad/drone

    Just got this all setup. Still haven't gotten to do much more than a few hovers in the front yard. I already have a gimbal, camera and live feed monitor on the way!!

    Anyone else have a multirotor hell?

          had someone about 3 weeks ago pilot one over my house. watching me and the kids working out in the yard. it was very apparent they were watching because as i walked toward the house the thing kept turning to keep me in view. i pointed at it and "told" it to leave. as i got to my front porch it took off and hovered over the neighbors house.

          was thiiiiiis close to getting my hands on the .410 before they left. it sat over the neighbor's for a second turned again to me then took off back home i assume.

          turns out i found out where the guy is, they have the live feed and some kind of goggles that you wear. it has an incredible range.

          having said all that, the nerd in me really wants one. just be careful of the observing your doing.

            I seen one this past weekend at muddy gras. Super cool. Property lines should be respected though.

              Had one watching me and about 10 girls during shot put and discus practice yesterday. It's ok there, but would be a problem if I saw the thing watching me while at home.

                If you can hit it with a .410, I would think the BB gun could do the trick....

                    bb gun was put up in the closet. .410 is the snake gun on the porch



                    how much weight can it pick up?

                      it would be picking up about 32oz's of lead if it hovered over my yard with a camera.

                          What brand is that one?

                          So you guys that want to shoot it out of the sky own the airspace? Some of these go high enough that you would never know it's there.

                              Thanks for that information. I was wondering if there were actually laws covering this. I do know I had recently read something about an attempt to stop news media from gathering information in this manner, say over an accident scene for example. I still believe shooting one out of the sky would not be the prudent thing to do.
