On Saturday a friend and I will be paying half each towards a radio controlled helicopter (about £100). It will be fitted with a wireless RF camera which in turn will be connected to my laptop via a TV capture card so we can see where the lil bugger is in real time. We've both never flown an R/C helicopter before so we're starting out on a battery powered model (m8 has a nitrous powered R/C Car though - 60mph ... LOL) and the deal is whoever crashes it pays the other their half of the costs hehe. If I can be bothered we will be recording everything the helicopter transmits back - if it crashes or some crazy shit happens then I guess I'll have to post a link to the vids.
i would hook up water balloons on it and attack my neighbor. No wait, first my dog, then my neighbor!
Dude get some practice in (there are some pc softwware that you can train on) before u fly there are a bitch to use £100 is alot when theres a HIGH chance of crash and burning!!! :smt023
Hook up some airsoft guns, a digital wireless camera and then fly it around shoosting people lol. I saw a scene like that in Problem CHild3.
Yeah, I know people who own remote controlled helicopters, and I can tell you that they do break. A lot. It's gonna crash, and It's gonna crash fast, so I hope you abandon the "pay the other guy back" system.
I would attach a bucket to the undercarriage and use it to steathliy drop pieces of Kentuky Fried Chicken on orphans. Then I would taunt them with an attached speaker and pre-recorded message: "You've been pwned by the Chicken Avenger copter! Get a job Oliver twist!" Then, I would tape gay porn to the outiside and use it to interrrupt political campaign speeches. Maye hit Bush in the face with some freid chicken too. Where can I get one of these?
£100 is considered to be a cheapy model But we want 4 channel control and a reasonable remote and airtime. The PC training won't help much seeing as the controls won't mimic the hands adjustments on the remote. I've had mucho experience chopper flying on Desert Combat with M$ Sidewinder force feedback 2 joystick, but the controls will hardly be similar. The plan is to eventually get a petrol R/C Copter and pimp the hell out of it with gadgetry :smt082
I had something like this once when I was really young. I don't know what happened to it. Someone took it I think. I can't really remember even if it was wireless or gaspowered come to think of it. All I know is It'd be days out in the open at a time flying it around. :smt023
