Just cut off one foot, most Drones only have four arms. If you cut off the wrong leg you'll walk round in circles forever!

Ask Sam to stop singing and email
you the Instructions Neil.
I've found them helpful and down to earth
in the past :-)) 
Cutting two off would not make
it equal. Cutting three off would ;D
Hope you get to the seat of the problem {-)

Whoever it is is not a moron. It is being very cleverly done which suggests something more sinister. The drone or drones need to be regularly recharged and are being sent over the airport to cause maximum disruption. I live quite near Gatwick and the surrounding countryside is very rural so trying to track down a launching site is going to be really difficult. They are presumably operating on the 2.4 Ghz band so identifying the control signal could be almost impossible. If they are using standard commercial R/C kit then it would be 'full range' which means that the operator will be somewhere in the vicinity but if the drone is fitted with telemetry then the operator need not have to keep it in sight.
Must be a nightmare for the security people. Hopefully the army have something that will bring the things down

Still A Moron. Not allowed to use other word.
If they catch them then I hope they get the absolute maximum sentence.
The army can probably track it but not wanting to give away what they can do.

To the west of Gatwick around Charlwood their are many areas of woodland and some are at a level which give an elevated view over the main runway.
  this is the area I would be looking . Unfortunately their are also properties on these areas.  In fact the Russ Hill Hotel is only 2Km from the end of the runway and is 170 ft above the runway with a clear view of it.
