Vulcann 6th Gear April 25, 2012 Share April 25, 2012 Seems like armed UAVs not longer some fanciful toys available only to the military... [sweatdrop] Adrian, how? Your RC toys capable of doing this? [laugh] But seriously with technology, what's impossible today maybe not be so tomorrow... From STOMP: http://singaporeseen.stomp.com.sg/stomp/sg...the_future.html Posted on 25 Apr 2012 Will this be the weapon of the future? Check out the flying machine gun Does this prototype show how wars will be fought in the future? This guy created a modified quadrotor that houses a sub-machine gun, and the end result was nothing short of deadly. This lethal machine has a fitted sub-machine gun that houses a 100-round magazine. The weapon is mounted on a quadrotor that can fly at speeds of 50 kmph and at altitudes of about 400 metres. An onboard camera camera allows the operator a bird's eye view of the target. Both the quadrotor and the machine gun can be controlled with a tablet PC. And, this machine comes with a built-in self-destruct device. So if the gun runs out of bullets, the operator can make the entire prototype explode as a final trump card. Said STOMPer Jeremy: "This is awesome. "You stay at a safe distance and still be able to take out your enemies. "I wonder if it will be adopted by the army in the future." ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vulcann 6th Gear April 25, 2012 Author Share April 25, 2012 (edited) this guy is fpsrussia, a funny guy The casual way he conducted himself was as if demonstrating the latest US$199 lawn-mower every suburb family should be equipped with. [shocked] With manual control, the UAV is still a bit sluggish and slow but in the future they might be computer-controlled or even have some limited AI-capability and then it would truly be [sweatdrop] Edited April 25, 2012 by Vulcann Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sosaria Turbocharged April 25, 2012 Share April 25, 2012 This is just a hoax lah... Read the comments on the video, and it's also mentioned in a US RC forum. The guy in the video, fpsrussia, shoots (pun intended!) a lot of videos on weaponry, mainly all sorts of guns and explosives. I wonder how he makes a living out of this?? Just by selling t-shirts? Ad space?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrianli Hypersonic April 26, 2012 Share April 26, 2012 Adrian, how? Your RC toys capable of doing this? In US, the guys have been using live ammo to fire their guns onboard r/c heli like four to five yrs ago. The problem is accuracy of the weapon and recoil of the weapon. http://www.metacafe.com/watch/2132952/r_c_...aliber_handgun/ R/C machines are not toys, they are a scaled down version of the real thing. They are as capable as the real thing. If DSTA or Mindef allows, I also want to mount a real gun on my heli and try it out!!! But I think they have ppl in there doing such research already.

Bro, if these army people have a well paying job for you to make these flying killing machines, you should join them man! i bet you gonna have lots and lots of fun at work!

With a stable flying platform, I think the payload problem will be solved eventually. That's why technology is like the 007 movie Never Say Never... Bro dun say a real gun, you will get into trouble for having even a live round here in Singapore!! BTW IIRC there was a recent demonstration of a hummingbird-sized flying vehicle. Any idea what is the propulsion mode? This mini-UAVs really have got plenty of potential in the military environment and maybe in the industrial espionage field...

Army will not want me lah, I PES C9N9. DSTA will not want me cos I got no degree. So I just play with what I have n try new technology within the confines of the legal issues. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
