Re: Madbull UAV Testing!
That's why you pay so much for there products.. They obviously have money to burn developing something that is pointless..

Re: Madbull UAV Testing!
I'm supprised no-one uses UAV's in milsims.
I have a RC aircraft in my loft that was capable of lifting a 4lb payload .. Specificaly a VHS-C camcorder. turned on before take-off it would record the entire flight. This was 15+ years ago.
With the advances in digital imaging and telemetry it should be very easy to home build a USAF style drone complete with realtime video.
The cost would be less that £200 for the drone and engine and RC kit + whatever electronic package you wish to carry..
Slow flying with a ducted fan or shrouded prop it should safe enough even if it was shot down and hit someone/something.
Any form of RC helocopter whould NOT get through H&S on any site. Even my small 6cc powered Helos carry a lot of energy in the rotors. If you to hit someone at full power you could kill them.
I would happily build a drone for my site but it would be useless due to the total cover from the canopy of trees ...unless some one can loan me a FLIR pack for the front ;-)

The parrot has a cam front and bottom, unfortunatly yes you do need an iphone or ipod touch to fly it but how cool would that be, whip out the ipod and get a top down view of the battlefield.
And it looks a peice of p to fly too, will even hover on its own.

I would say its only going to be wifi range as thats how its connected to the phone/pod.
But in a open cqb enviroment that would be plenty.
Also what happens when the operator gets hit while using it???
Can it be left to hover, or would it have to come down??

Re: Madbull UAV Testing!
Looooks EPIC. Could be perhaps a 'perk' of some sorts when you complete and objective? I.E. Similar to how the perks work on MW2. No flaming now...I hate MW2...but it would make things more interesting. Even more so if You could mount a gun to it.
Yeah I play Bad Company too much
