- Eric Joe, told Ars he was flying his homemade drone over his parents’ orchard late last year. After just three-and-a-half minutes of flight time, a single shotgun blast rang out from the neighbor’s property at the low-flying, slow-moving hexacopter. The drone came crashing down instantly and was damaged beyond repair.
- After the neighbor, Brett McBay, declined to cover the costs that he initially was amenable to pay, Joe took McBay to small claims court last month.

I hear the dude has a shotgun ... that might be worth something. "If he doesn't pay within 30 days we have to go through court processes to find out what kinds of assets he has and then to get a lien and get a judgement against his assets or wage garnishment,"

What a jerk. He shot at a drone that wasn't even over his own property then has the gall to think he was in the right.

I think McBay is growing pot or making moonshine and still thinks its the 20s.
