Did someone tried? I mean, can you really catch drone with butterfly net without damaging the drone or the net? -- Hkmaly (talk) 12:32, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

I know people shoot them out of the air with guns and considering the height at which they're flying, it's possible. The Twenty-second. The Not So Only. The Nathan/Nk22 (talk) 12:47, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
I think the Amazon bit is implying that Amazon is artificially making drone nets unavailable because of its own drone based delivery service. Feel free to rephrase it. 108.162.219.193 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)

does this reference P.K,Dick's "Vulcan's Hammer"? -- Docski (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)

Hmm... I don't think hammers are equal to drones, but interesting. The Twenty-second. The Not So Only. The Nathan/Nk22 (talk) 16:56, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
I think there are far too many sci-fi dystopias that this could be referencing to list them all. The Matrix immediately comes to mind, but a simple google search suggests more. 108.162.249.162 05:08, 12 May 2015 (UTC)

If you removed all regulations, drone theft would be legal. If it's on your property, it belongs to you. 108.162.214.227 18:42, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

You mean we AREN'T living in a sci-fi dystopia right now? There are skies that are patrolled by robots with missiles. 173.245.56.210 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)

Unless they're your skies, you don't live in a sci-fi dystopia. You just share a planet with one. 108.162.214.227 23:19, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

I'm attaching a butterfly net to my drone right now. Catching high flying drones is so easy, I will attach nets to my 20 drones tomorrow. 173.245.48.158 22:02, 11 May 2015 (UTC)BLuDgeons

How easy is it to take over the remote controller once you have the drone in your net? Is there a fairly generic way to pair a drone to another controller? (In current designs) Taibhse (talk) 22:20, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

1243

Does this have anything to do with 1243 ? I mean it suggest largely the same thing just on a different scale
