Title: shotgun or this...?
Post by: BlueFlyer on January 11, 2016, 11:41:08 PM
I can tell you I'd much prefer for my "drone" to be caught by this thing rather than be shot down by some crazed (and probably drunk) redneck with a shotgun...

So I,m thinking carry a small suicide drone piggyback then if you spot this monster coming launch and attack attack attack LOL ;D

I think its maybe game over anyway if these guys get your platform your not getting it back  :D

Anyone can hit a stationary target, lets see him catch something that's moving.

More idiotic footage of a practically stupid idea.

You can tell the people "inventing" these things don't actually fly on a regular basis.

If I was a bad guy, using a "drone" to do harm, I could fly into an area and detonate it or what ever, before they have plugged in their batteries and waited for the GPS to lock.

Drones to catch drones is not a practical solution to a non existent problem.  ;D

I wonder if a new security business could be started out of this?

Persuade the FA that every Premiership football ground should have a 'drone catcher' on patrol above every match. Of course, by accident there might also be a camera hanging underneath to get some 'sneak' videos to sell !

Persuade Royalty one should be on patrol above each Royal Palace.

Persuade Government one should be on patrol above every public park and government building.

I'm a genius - watch out Simon Cowell, I'll soon be richer than you !

Persuade celebs one should be on patrol above their homes, holiday villas, rental holiday boats.

Etc., etc.                                      (?)
