It's a frustrating and cheap tactic, but I'm not sure how you can change it. High speed collisions should be able to take out dropships.
My God. I noticed this whole increase in dropships attempting to ram my Incubus (even other Pythons for Christ's Sake). I can't really complain because the odds of them ever even touching me are minimal, but when they do, I rage for days. I look at it as a spam of WP for me since I'll just pull out a small railgun (since most of the rammers use shield derpships) and shoot them down without any hassle.
Off topic: I actually got ragemail yesterday from some Python pilot who claimed I rammed him. I don't purposely ram people in my .5m ISK ADS. ***** be crazy. Anyway, just pull out a small rail ADS and gun these people down. It made the air more fun to be in.
Dropships need a buff. This way they can stop derping everywhere . ;_;

I saw the landing marker next to me and waited for the RDV. Without seeing the RDV I hear "Deployment Successful." Confused I looked up at the MCC and saw the RDV flying away from on-top the MCC. My ADS rolling to off the side was accompanied by the loudest yelled swear word of all time (for me anyway). It plummeted to the ground nose first and exploded taking out a pair of random blueberries that had spawned in late.
Another match sometime later; I hear another "Deployment Successful" but this time being no where near the MCC I wasn't too worried. Waiting, waiting. Then with dreadful fright I look up and my ADS is plummeting to the ground, the RDV stuck in one of its frozen moments high above the ground. I said "hell no, I'm not letting this happen again" and I walked underneath, timed it just right and the moment before I was crushed underneath the fiery explosion of its landing I melee the dropship. A nearby Squad mate was laughing his ass off and after a while managed to ask me "what was I expecting to happen?" The answer was "Pretty much what did happen. I tried to do something, cursed Scotty for it, and then died before doing a damn thing."
Put REs on your fit every time you call in a DS and put them down on the drop zone, this way here you can blow them up just before the DS/ADS hits the ground to negate the fall damage if it happens again.
