yeah, a copper with a tazer you can at least TRY and run away, but you'll never see these things coming, especially in a built up area.

just imagine, making it through wtshtf....got your homestead sorted got your crops in,and your animals sorted , life is hard but good..........then along comes a drone you cannot see or hear .....and drops you like a stone, that's the trouble with new techno WE will always be behind THEY will always be in front. Take a tip from the distant past............underground......cave.

If it is firing a normal tazor round its got to get as close as 6.4 meters which makes it vulnerable and at that range very hearable, an air rifle would bring it down.

[bigpaul]

I'm wondering if an air rifle pellet or a crossbow bolt could bring this thing down? are they that vulnerable or wouldn't some defence be built in? I mean it cant be that simple, surely?

[NorthernRaider]

Most drones are made from very lightweight plastic and are powered by three or four little fans driven by small electric motors powered by a battery, they fly em for fun at a model airplane club near here, they are always crashing them and breaking them. I reckon a crossbow bolt with either a pointed bolt or even better a blunt head would smash the drone completely.

don't think it would do it much good BP mate

[bigpaul]

well ok, seems to have got that one sorted then
