If you experience too many lost birds go to #4 shot. Drones taste very bland so you'll need lots of salt. Or, as in the case of spotted owls, shoot, shovel, and shut up.Gerry N.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515829.post-86170118392109721902012-02-18T21:09:15.689-08:002012-02-18T21:09:15.689-08:00Ditto Bob.

For a quad like that, dinging the accelerameters hard enough would probably induce a catastrophic overcorrection loop that brings it down.<br /><br />(That's why I'm thinking about visual camo for the one I'm planning to build. Which right now boils down to "thin plastic fairing and white paint.")Phelpshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06270536870200063563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515829.post-34107265738902593552012-02-18T14:42:51.126-08:002012-02-18T14:42:51.126-08:00any, aim just behind the ear.any, aim just behind the ear.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515829.post-50659245666397666262012-02-18T09:56:56.557-08:002012-02-18T09:56:56.557-08:00I am pretty sure they are lying.

I'd be generous and say they simply lost control of the drone and crashed it. The alternative is, it was planned beforehands.gene_jockeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05140041582342484726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515829.post-4550324323717011082012-02-18T05:46:04.362-08:002012-02-18T05:46:04.362-08:00Gauge, more like.

Of course, if it's already at altitude you'd have to use something like an AR-15 loaded with tracers and fitted with a bump-fire stock.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11402651457453813639noreply@blogger.com
