What Im trying to say is that if someone wants to spy on you there are a plethora of avenues they can take that dont involve a drone, and I still cant get over the fact that there are some people here that think they are the center of attention in their neighborhood to where people would want to spy on them..
Just hope yall dont shoot one of those high dollar drones that belong to a surveying company that maps the contour of the land or anything, thatll probably land you a felony. For me to shoot a drone, it would have to be insanely close, like flying within arms reach and obviously being used for malicious reason. And even still, I would run the risk of getting arrested for damage to property. The fact remains that if the drone is flying above your owned airspace (which like I mentioned is anywhere from 80 to 500ft) and you shoot it down you can be criminally charged. Just did a google search for the article and Ill be curious to see if the charges against the shooter are dropped or upheld once the video evidence noted below is released. Again, sounds like a gross overreaction by someone who is frightened by technology. Wonder when they will go to court? Following the original news story, the drone pilot has come forward with what he claims is the flight data of the trip that ended in disaster. Speaking with Kentucky's WDRB, the drone's operator, David Boggs, has provided a video record of the drone's movements on the date of the incident, appearing to show that the vehicle was over 200 feet in the air at the time it was shot down. Boggs also claims that he was flying his drone in the area to film a friend's home, and that his trip over Merideth's property had nothing to do with his daughter being outside. |

Even more interesting is the cached video below of the drones last moments before being shot.. clearly not 10' off the ground in his back yard. Also wasnt even focused on the ground until he began to get shot at. The plane landed in someone elses yard (that tells you that it was so high the wind caused it to drift after it lost power) and the man refuses to hand over the sim card with the real time video on it...and why? Because he is lying about the fact that it was 10ft off the ground in his backyard spying on his daughter.

From the thread I posted today...
"Ascension Parish Sheriff's Office spokesman Lt. Col. Bobby Webre confirmed they are investigating, but said they do not expect to press charges against anyone. Webre said there is no law in Louisiana that applies to this situation. Instead, he says people should be logical and respectful when it comes to flying drones over someone else's property." |

If the guy was spying, Im sure the SIM card will be handy evidence, which may be why the shooter is holding on to it. But wouldnt he want to hand the SIM card over if it supports his story? I guess we will see when they are in trial. But at that height, and with the wide angle lens as shown in the video I posted, its clear that its not an ideal setup to spy on people. Now with all this being said, there should be a mutual respect amongst neighbors.. let them know what youre doing and if they see a drone that its you...to avoid this kind of stuff, and you might not get your drone shot down. |

This been the point of many all along. Like the link I posted earlier for something similar in my area, he had spoken with the neighbor and the sheriff's dept already and, problem persisted.

Nothing teaches respect for boundaries like enforcement of said boundaries.

Based on where the quad took off from and where it was shot down, I wouldn't exactly call them neighbors. The guy that owned the house that was supposedly being filmed probably doesn't even know the guy that shot it down. I know I got neighbors that border my property and I don't know them. If the quad was just hovering over the guys property and his daughter is sunbathing why doesn't he have the right to be upset? Is everyone supposed to be a quad expert? Do you really believe everyone know their capabilities or inabilities?

I shoot 3.5 inch triple BBs and can stone a scaup at 70 yards and they tough as leather. A little plastic drone would be toast. One pellet to those plastic blades it will drop
