It's not a bird. Check out this YouTube video: Using a Drone to Scout for Fish [/SIZE] |

Dang, us office fishermen can use this to find ol' W fishin' spots! They even have gps on that drone. Gonna be hard to figure 8 a plane though....

Oh, it can perform a figure 8 to hold a position. No problem there!

Man could you imagine the possibilities? You can scout for ducks and geese from the camp.

Yep or snag it with a 3/8oz yellow mouth jig and bring it down to earth and reverse engineer it like a insurgent. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

People have shot at it in St. Bernard.
The Marine Corps also tested the feasibility of shooting down a small UAS. (they were testing the DragonEye). They were unable to do so. It's hard but if I ever get a spare I'd love to try it out myself. |

I'd be more worried about the accurate casting of a Louisiana fisherman than most Marines though! I'd throw a double rig that had 1/4oz jigheads on it. |

Are you flying in FPV(first Person view)? I would assume you were since you have the GPS mounted but didn't see a monitor or goggles when it showed you launching from the back of your truck.

No, they used a SAW, M240 and M2. They did hit the plane, but it just holes in the airfoil and did not down it.
The plane won't get close enough for a shotgun. I would try using a potato cannon with a net in the payload. I have seen those depleted uranium shells for shotguns. I would be interested to try that. |

Yes, I do. I fly the plane LOS on launch until I can get it to a couple hundred feet. Then I switch it from manual control over to autopilot so I can sit down and put the goggles on. If I have my partner to throw the plane for me then I just leave my goggles on. |
