Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
I don't think that there would be much of a discussion if a drone crashed in my yard. You own a drone? It crashed? Cool story brah. No, you can't trespass to look for your alleged drone.
If Hornady can sell zombie ammo Im sure the drone ammo will come along shortly.
It's fair for me to say that if you were flying a drone around my property, I'd have a real attitude problem with that. I would find an effective non firearms way to trash your 2K investment into a pile of broken shit.

Why the attitude? What if someone was flying a kite near your property, or an estes rocket?
"There are no finger prints under water."
Yeah, a kite or Estes rocket with a 4K camera. Apparently you folks have something to hide.Originally Posted by Irving

I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.

How does that slippery slope start? If you aren't doing anything illegal, you shouldn't have nothing to worry about. Uh huh.

It wasn't 4k (didn't exist, shit, I don't think HD did either), but I had a model rocket with a camera on it back in the day.
Not really apples to apples, but it's still the point.
Honestly, a kite would be even easier than a quad... You don't have to have the wireless video transmission.... You can use the rope to run a data/video cable.

Back to the real topic of the thread...
The simple answer here is that there is new tech that isn't going away, and as long as there is a human element involved, there are going to be douche bags with said tech that will do the douche baggery...
I have a sneaking suspicion that most that shoot a drone over their property are going to be red-flagged pretty quick anymore.
1. Discharging a firearm in a neighborhood is verboten everywhere that I know of (city limits thing)
2. Announcing that you have firearms to douche bags that just lost their $2k toy, why wouldn't they be vindictive and get your guns confiscated for a year...
3. Likely going to get the police involved... (revert back to #1)... May not even be the drone the owner...
While some of these cases may appear to go the way of the shooter, the reality of the situation is likely to be a very negative thing for a pro-2A person shooting a drone out of the sky...

A kite I wouldn't give two shits about, have fun kid. Estes rocket, no, I don't want you burning the neighborhood down.
I said drone. If you're not a realtor taking pics for a listing, the people in that neighborhood won't be as nice as I'm being for the sake of the discussion. If you want to be a drone jockey, take it out to open space and play....otherwise, I'm figuring shit ain't gonna go so well for your equipment.

I would venture to guess the majority of the objections have NOTHING to do with an attempt to conceal illegal activity and are much more about the fact that everyone has property with some kind of value that they don't want to disappear, as well as the simple decency of respecting someones privacy...
One of my neighbors sells drones online for a living and has hundreds of them in their garage. The cheapo ones, that are basically toys, have been found in many of the neighborhood backyards and on at least two roofs that i know of... I would love to be able to launch a net up at them or something, and leave the pieces in their yard instead of my own, but I would never consider shooting at them with a gun, that is until they started hovering outside a window while someone was showering.
