Neighbor flying drone lost it over our fence and jumped over to our property without permission.
Our gates are locked.

Looser weepers I would say. I believe that permission must be sought to fly over someone else's property and must not video "over the fence".

" You think your drone flew into my garden? Oops, so that was what I stood on/weed whacked when I was gardening today? Oh dear never mind. Do you want the bits in a bag to take home?"

had a constant battle with elderly Asian neighbours coming into my property and plundering my veggie garden. Never asked, just took.

Invite yourself to their house at dinner time. After all, it was your food.

Probably the drone rules are not especially relevant to this situation. More the trespass act.

To the letter of the law I believe you need permission to fly a drone over someone else's property

Have the offenders been served a trespass notice? Without that the act is irrelevant.

Bear in mind that a member of the public can enter another's property as long as it is not with the intention of committing an unlawful act. Until they are trespassed.

By my count that's the fourth time you've been wrong today.

As per tony9 you must "trespass" someone (usually verbally or in writing) before the trespass act becomes involved.
