Quadrocopter pilot gets attacked by drone-hating woman

Looks like it was an Iris, the guy sure played it cool

"When police arrived, Mears claimed the man was taking inappropriate pictures of people sunbathing on the beach and that he had assaulted her. But after the pilot showed the surreptitiously captured video of her assault on him, she was arrested.

On the RCgroups.com forum, the pilot posted a description of what he had done and the aftermath of the situation:"

    My hometown. I used to work in that park as a teenager. Nice to see the crazies still flock there in droves.
