Eric, what is the problem using spud gun. Mine shoots weighted tennis ball trailing monofilament line. I shoot almost straight up so it stays on my city lot. Better to just go over top of tree than to try for a particular branch. If you are going to use a drone first look at all the videos on YouTube as there is good info there. 
Good luck, 73, Ron W8RJL

A local suggested using a drone instead. Legal requirements notwithstanding
(I'm in Washington, DC, a restricted flight zone), how hard is this to do?
Is it worth the effort to apply for a waiver? 



Any advice or suggestions are appreciated!
