Aerial Drones

[Tanfodude]

I know there's a new law in Indiana that criminalizes anyone using the aerial drones for harassment and voyeurism. Reporting it to LEO is the best option. But what are your choices if it keeps coming back? I'm thinking of sling shotting it if it's over your property. I'm asking for a neighbor.

You'll want to use a skeet or full choke.

Remember, they typically have on board cameras and some transmit back to the operator. Personally I like the idea but prefer one of the pre charged pneumatic pellet guns!

I know about the camera, hence the need to bring it down. Are the pneumatic pellet guns good enough to bring it down?

Don't think it's allowed in city limits.

Can you cite IN code on this? While one could record video via a drone, you don't need to. It can send a live fpv video to the operator. There wouldn't be much of anything to prove a case of "harassment and voyeurism" unless you downed the aircraft and retrieved it's SD memory card. Shooting down a drone can get you in deep trouble. I guess you could video the drone videoing something else but then who is spying on whom?

Like I've said here before, drones are getting smaller, lighter, with longer flight times. Video cameras are getting higher zooms and longer record times. You will not be able to defeat this technology. Drones will get as small as a fly and land on things to video record wile saving power for their flight batteries.

FYI There is code in the wild where you can fly your own drone near it and take over the controls / have it follow your drone.

Bringing it down other than a firearm can land you in deep trouble even if it's over your property? Or you mean civil suit? Any IC on this?

If you're inside just about any city/town limits it'll be illegal to discharge a firearm (for anything other than self-defense). Also included in many statutes are prohibitions against even compressed air guns and spring-powered guns.

Anti Drone SOP

In the event you notice the same drone overhead around your domain.
Secure a life size replica of a human then appear to be cutting the human replica up into pieces.
This can be done wearing a leather mask,vest and thong all of which are optional.

A paint ball gun would work . . .

Don't think it's allowed in city limits.

Suppressor!

I typed the sentence wrong, I meant not using a firearm. I know about the city limits. I'm asking him is taking it down by other means.

If someone were spying on me with a drone, it might motivate me to be really, really naked.

That's going to get the drone to move along in short order.

I was wondering about your own drone with a net. This sounds even better.

I see a business opportunity in this!
