Chased a cow out in the country yesterday what a blast

[gixxerbill]

Was up about 8 to 10 ft and was looking right at the cow. He didn't know what to at first and then I started going side to side and that sucker took off. Oh it was fun chased him for about 20 to 30 second and then he stopped looked back at the drone like he was going to charge it and then changed his mind and ran some more.

I also had a lab chase it at the beach about the same altitude and a few times that dog almost got it so I took it up a couple of feet. Everybody was loving the show except my friend that owned the dog because he thought the dog would pass out from exhaustion even though he shoots a tennis ball with a 22 shell 80yrds or further and has his dog go fetch it.

Any of ya'll mess with animals with the mav?

why's that? and another question do you appear fun at parties or you the dude that sits on the couch by himself?

You are the life and soul of the drone community - congratulations

Cow probably won't produce milk for a month . Do you chase chickens also so they won't lay any eggs ?

 

[flying_outcast]

Lol..... The amount of grumpy old men in here is ridiculous....

Maybe it's his contributions to stop animal brutality by factory farming..... Didn't think of that did you? ‍

Look mate, I'm all for breaking rules and having fun, but it says something about a person that's willing to f*** with animals. Are you the kid that put firecrackers up a cat's butt?

Lol..... The amount of grumpy old men in here is ridiculous....

And the amount of morons on here is ridiculous as well.

do you appear fun at parties

Do you "appear fun at parties" by trashing the whole place or getting wasted and barfing on people, so funny! Sounds about equivalent.

It is a matter of honor not to hunt animals.

 

[TxTroy]

Your mentality is precisely why drones are banned in all US national parks.

Absolutely not. I love animals and have had alot if different kinds as pets.... From reptiles to horses. And I would never stand by if someone were hurting animals and bragging about it.... But a little scare isn't brutality..... The fat old cow might even benefit from her blood to start running a little faster, don't we all?

If you need to ask that then there is clearly no point in trying to explain it to you.

If you had any sense you wouldn't have done it, let alone proudly boast about it.

no kidding I guess they hate horses that drive cows(and they drive them alot longer than 20 seconds) to slaughter too **** irresponsible evil horses. And I really bet they really hate Salt Grass and other steak houses.

But it got me thinking maybe drones would be a good way of bringing a stray cow back into the fold.

The funny part is that it's a 99.9% chance that it's a troll playing of the grumpyness on this forum, not a cow or a dog, but fooling old grumpy prudes.

 

[gavcuk]

Equally stupid

Although I don't condone this type of behavior. He does bring up a good point about herding some stray cattle with a drone on a working ranch. Could be a useful option for some ranchers. Like it or not, it's a part of ranching.

I chased a lizard around for a few seconds the other day.

All of this over a Cow? I think the biggest issue is that the farmer may shoot down your drone. It may not have happened this time but he may have a gun loaded and waiting in case you show up again. My second warning would be that farm land is a great place to fly, so don't mess up relations with the owner or you might be met with hostility.

Congratulations on harassing wildlife.

The issue (at least this time of year in the US) is that the cow may have a calf. By separating them, the calf may not find the mother and die. Perhaps not in your case but this is why its a crime in most areas. This is weighted against your satisfaction of seeing a cow running scared. Personally, I don't see the pleasure in that.

P.S. Removing myself from this thread as I suspect it's simply a troll post.
