FYI, they are not allowed to hover over your personal property(your home). Not sure if that's a state law or what but there was a recent case where a gentleman shot one down(with a shot gun) that was hovering over his fence line and it was upheld in court.

Now obviously there were no houses/people in the direction he was shooting etc etc.

Yeah I believe his daughter was sun tanning he was pissed and I'm glad he won in court.

I think it's an FAA regulation. My son just registered his with the FAA and that was one of the rules he signed off on.

Not sure about the legality of discharging a firearm in a neighborhood. Must have been in a rural area.
