It would be a shame if your toy copter got caught in the downdraft from the 
firefighters full size copter.  Although in this video it looks like the drone 
was flying above the coast guard helicopter when it got sucked down.

I like the crossbow.  More elegant and medieval...

  I wonder if it's illegal to shoot them down if they're flying on your 
property...

    Right, but you WANT it to fly home so you can follow it.  At 2.4ghz the 
operator can't be too far away and you want to find him so you can shoot him 
ask him to leave your property

      You would have to jam GPS as well, since most will fly home if they lose 
WiFi contact.  Unless you deauth the pilot’s WiFi and take control of the drone.

        No.   Not legal.  He knows it.  I want to see one in action from a 
scientific point of view.  I know I have enough stuff in batcave to make one.  
Simple jammer is to connect several APs with 40 or 80Mhz channels and cause 
intentional loop back.   Or video transmitter with larger antenna.  I have done 
both as demonstration to Physics  class students when I worked at Tornillo ISD 
to talk about Faraday cage and RF signal behavior.

                We've got a temporary service in place relayed from a

                there's nothing we can do for this community right now either.
                Reports indicate the power company is setting up a generator.

                30 homes were lost in Rock Creek so far, and then there's an
