Netting a drone...

Back in the late 70s early 80s the Navy launched a cruise missile, escorted by a fighter, from out in the Gulf. It had a route north bound passing just east of Destin FL, flying a few waypoints in southern Alabama, and then returning to FL hitting a target on the Eglin AFB range. Protesters were up on Hwy 98 with poles holding up what looked like a big fishing net. It obviously was symbolic, or was it, but it was comical if they thought they could "catch" a cruise missile.

Sweeper nozzle on my garden hose worked just fine.
 
I built a spud gun from some PVC pipe that fires a net made from deer net and fishing sinkers.
Tested it on one of my older drones.
I took the drone down from over 100 feet away.
No violation of the "discharging a firearm withing 500' of a domicile" law.
:rolleyes:
I hope the weather improves soon so I can get back into a plane before I get myself into trouble.
