I pondered the thought of sharing this information for a month or more. Because the pendulum swings both ways! ! A woman in Oakland, California pointed a rifle at my 3DR Solo and tracked it and then pointed the rifle from a docked boat, at me an the couple I was speaking to at the time.
First of all I'm not afraid of guns, I own one. I was so disappointed and disgusted that she felt she had some special right to do that. I felt so badly for the couple that I was talking too. They were so excited and amazed by my Multi-Copter, that the man wanted to take pictures with the copter.
I landed my Solo, I went to the Police Station and reported her! The Police asked me, what did I want the outcome to be for this matter. I said I'm not trying to send anyone to jail, but I want her to know she is breaking the law, that she can't go around pointing guns at people. The Policemen had lots of questions about my 3DR Solo and of course I answered them all.
I almost decide not to fly anymore, it just took a couple of day for me to let that go. I really blame the media for sensationalizing these stories.
