SE Iowa | Have fun with that, better hope it's not registered. If it is, the penalty is the same as shooting at a manned aircraft. That's 20 years and $250,000 buddy :)

Doesn't matter if it's registered. The Feds consider it an aircraft anyway. |

Altoona, WI | Where do you live? I would like to take you up on that challenge. The video footage of you trying to spot my speck in the sky and wasting bullets trying to shoot it down should get me a lot of hits on YouTube. Even in the unlikely event that you do hit it, that video is worth a lot of hits too. You get famous and I make enough for a new drone either way. Win-win for us both. |

| If I rent an airplane and fly over your property and your property is a sparsely populated area I'm allowed to be within 500' of any person, vessel, vehicle or structure regardless of my altitude as long as my altitude allows for an emergency landing without undue risk towards people or property. In other words, it would be legal for me to go up with a camera that has a high end zoom lens on it and take videos or pictures of you and your farm. If someone were in an airplane doing that, would you shoot them down? That would really be asking for it. If you would not, how is that any different than someone doing the same thing with a drone? |

I thought I had found a forum that didn't have Trolls. Guess I was wrong. :( |

Eastern Shore of MD | Seriously, I agree. He probably got kicked off his last Honda Civic forum |

Chebanse, IL..... | Actually, a guy on a hang glider or powered chute w/a GoPro can come much closer than 500' (the 500' you cited). (2) A powered parachute or weight-shift-control aircraft may be operated at less than the minimums prescribed in paragraph (c) of this section. |

39.48, -82.98 | This is a pro-drone board. And the point about piloted aircraft at 500 feet is well taken.
Even so, I think most on here will admit that there is a privacy issue at stake. Imagine looking out your back door to see a couple stranger standing in your yard, taking pictures. Would you be okay with that? What's the difference? What about a drone following your young children...probably nothing?
Drones do raise issues...issues that will be settled in court. The case in Louisville last year set something of a precedent, though it will have to go through the legal system to hold weight. |

Its easy to take one extreme or the other on this, but you put a nice perspective on it.
When quality zoom lenses come to the common drone, it will raise the stakes on all this.....
When the neighborhood found out I had a drone, one neighbor said (laughing as he talked) that his wife said now she can't go outside naked any more.
My reply: your wife goes out naked?
Anyhow I gave thrm all short videos from my farm looking at their places so they can see what is in the view, and that I don't have a zoom function, you can hear the thing coming.....

Kansas | Ill add this must to this .. his camera with a telephoto lense can count the buttons on your shirt.. same distance from a drone > I cant tell if your even holding a gun.. |

| If less then 4 miles out. One can easiliy check out your farm with a souped up controller. It's difficult to see bird at 1k' elevation. But to go there just to piss you off is alltogether wrong |
