Honestly, what can you do? Most of these guys barely have time to pull the trigger without aiming before the drone is in death range. A bunch of the clips had a second drone watching from a distance, probably ready with a second charge. Maybe you get lucky once, I doubt you get lucky twice.
You could imagine solutions to an explosive fpv drone in a test range scenario. Maybe flechette/buckshot from a 40mm grenade system. A net thrown like pocket sand.
I don't see how any of these are practical in the open field, or with 5s reaction time.
