Wasn't there another thread complaining about a remoter controlled drone and a camera recently??? Hmmmm...

Yup. http://www.talkbass.com/threads/small-drone-with-camera-hovering-outside-my-window-today.1073522/

So there's this weirdo neighbor who I'm pretty sure is up to no good. I buy a small remote control aircraft with a video camera on it. Kind of like a drone. I end up getting pretty good with the controls and I end up doing a fly by at his house, right in front of one of the windows and well well well, what do I see.
The video tape has been submitted to the cops so I can't talk about the on-going, felony investigation. I think he found out I'm the owner of the remote control aircraft. What should I do?

Be ashamed?

I don't know, I guess it depends - maybe move, change your name, get bodyguards?

Looks like you stuck your own foot in the cowpie by your own admission....

Practice evasive maneuvers. Upon seeking his colleagues' counsel, there's a good chance this fellow may be equipping himself with things like shotguns, .50 cal assault rifles (if there is such a thing), and two ounce bell sinkers.

There is no such thing as an assault rifle, really. It is a term used to identify a selective fire rifle and usually in a small calibre. .50 cal is a very popular round for snipers. I don't think you would want to try to handle .50 in full auto mode.

I was somewhat skeptical myself.

I have a .410 shotgun with Dove Load for Urban Drone Warfare,.

Not enough. You need at least a 20 and no smaller than 7 1/2". Not enough pellets in a .410 to get a good pattern for an airborne target.
Maximum fun would be an RPG, but they are so hard to find, even on CL.

Actually, I didn't think I posted that, I changed it because I did find the term used to identify a selective fire rifle in a small calibre, like an AK or an AR. And I also said you would not want to handle a .50 cal in full auto.

Yeahs. This thread was an old-fashioned Internet forum leg-puller. One person posts about a topic complaining about something. Then, for fun, I pretend I am the "other" person of that topic, but post it from a different point of view.

Sorry if I offended/disgusted anyone by accident. I thought it was obvious considering the number of responses to the "small drone with camera" thread.





No, I don't have a remote control aircraft with a camera.

The whole thing reads like an episode of -Time Tunnel-.
Hard not to run with it.

Are you saying there are some who did not immediately see this was a poke?
Really?

Hence the need for those nefarious smileys.

I've been in other forums where one guy seriously complained about this dude hooking with his girlfriend while he's out of town and they end up breaking up. And then, someone posts another thread talking about meeting up with a single woman whose boyfriend was out of town. I don't think talkbass is ready to handle that level of jesting.

Coldblooded!

50. cal refers to the size of the slug and not necessarily a given round.....it may well be that a 50. cal round ids available for an ar/ak style rifle,but yeah,the one from the big machine gun would not be that round....
