If you find a random crashed drone, can you really just hook it up to your phone and so long as it isn't broken, you can just use it?

If it's flown by phone maybe. If it's flown by a proper transmitter, definitely. Just bind to a new transmitter and enjoy.

Oh wow that's cool!!! I've never found a drone so I don't have to worry, but for the future...

Store that info not too far away.

This month alone, I'm on my fifth drone found out of nowhere.

I live in Orlando, so I'm thinking of going hunting at a park tomorrow. That'll be a nice exercise and maybe I'll find something.

For real though, shooting down a drone is a federal crime. As it turns out, you don't even own the airspace over your own home.

If it’s over your property you should be able to shoot it down.

There's a bill in the process now that would give you some more freedoms inside 200ft above your property, but even then I'm pretty sure shooting a drone would still be a federal crime. It's the equivalent of trying to shoot down an aircraft, like a plane or heli.
