Re: [MBZ] Kentucky man shoots down drone hovering over his backyard

2015-07-30 Thread Curly McLain via Mercedes

I see a market for gun-like tool which shoots a net or somesuch to bring
down a drone.  Keep the drone until anyone claiming to be the owner can
prove they are the owner in a court of law.  After enough publicity, jail
time  fines for those breaking federal laws, and just the pure hassle of
getting your drone back, drone incidents like this will be reduced.

Yes.  A spider man web slinger.  I've also thought this to be the 
perfect solution.

Tater gun stuffed with a shrimp throw net, you catch it you keep it.

I just got a 1600 mW solid state laser from China that runs off 12V (I 
think, I haven't really looked at it yet) to put on a little burning 
machine, I got to thinking that mounting that sucker on a quadcopter 
with some targeting software and FPV goggles would be just the thing 
when them crackas show up wanting their machine back.   Say hello to my 
leetle fren  CAUTION:  Do Not Look at Laser with Remaining Eye


Or even better than the spud gun but then the device would be disabled 
if the brains got burned through.

Being that its Kentucky I'm surprised they arrested him. Maybe theres a law 
against discharging a firearm within city limits?
