I posted it up for you but needs to be approved first by the Admin. It will be under Challenges such as the video on this page.

Bomb Drop Challenge, ME

This episode and a guy named dumb_thumbs on RC Groups inspired me to do my own bomb drop-
Cost less than $3.00. Here's some vid of one of the first drops. I have since bought some of the little nerf footballs and have had a blast dropping them on top of people at our local field! I'll have to make some flour filled easter eggs and give that a shot too

After seeing this episode, I had to add a servo for a bomb dropper. Too bad I don't have people people to fly with.

Hey Guys

Well this is my second attempt at creating a bomb drop module for my super cub.

Its a compilation of take off's, bomb drops and landings. (watch to the end for a sweet greased in landing)

Hope you enjoy!

ikr!! It can get so boring when you´re flying on your own! I sometimes hate my little brother but that is still better to go fly with him then with nobody.

@cloaked: nice Video! I like the mechanism. Might add that to my Event, if I can put it on the plane without having to glue much.

If your going to drop bombs at least use a bomber

 

[Hamdhan]

I am thinking about making a fly itself kinda plane which flies off my PC. If I do ever succeed (I am working with a bunch of ppl who made a wired underwater vehicle robot which is controlled by a PC joystick from teh PC). however, adding bombs to it which are auto instead of the plane would be easier...and more awesome!

Couple of those HK B-grade lipos and i'm gud to go!

 

[colorex]

That has been done, and is expensive... Sensors, accelerometers, gyros, programming, etc.

 

[ananas1301]

yes it is!

Most of the times you also need a recognition system to measure the exact position of the plane using either GPS or a camera system inside a room (mostly used for multicopters in university investigations and experiments though)
