We can't buy a 9mm in any store over here across the pond, but pepper spray is actually a good idea for a drone kit
I've been pretty lucky so far with very few Karens in my 6 years of flying, most people are just curious and come to ask the standard questions - how far/fast/high can it go, how much does it cost, and occasionally can I try
I only used my pepper spray once and that was on a dog fight in a parking lot i was flying in,It broke the dog fight up and choked everyone trying to break up the dogs, ![](//forum44.djicdn.com/static/image/smiley/default/biggrin.gif)
But you are right most the times I just get curious bystanders asking the usual questions .
But I had a lady once if you could call her that with her potty mouth. call the game wardens & state police on me when i was hired to taking pictures of a camp and their boat landing and stuff. .the police were very informative about drones and were pretty nice to me and told that lady to stop bothering me.
I had a fella once call the police on me when i was flying a lumber yard in East Tennessee for a new unload area and they need a new road. I really though that guy as gonna take a shot at my drone, he was walking around sputtering was all puffed up and threatening my spotter if i didn't leave he do something to us, that was one of the more scary experiences.
so i always pack some protection when i fly & when i work at or around airports thy don't allow guns so I started carrying pepper spray for bears and just in case stuff for when i'm hiking around. |
