guess what i made

hey i hooked up a servo and reciever to my spyder (e99 avant) so now i can shoot from somewhere else (we play in the woods by my friends house) and they'll think i'm there so i can distract them. i have my gun set up on a homemade tripod. the range on the control is 1/4 mile. i only have it set up to pull the trigger. i'm gonna try to work something out so it can turn. i probably cant get it to go up and down though since i only have a 2 channel reciever.

if youre using windows, just open the file in paint, and save it...cuts the size in half.

if its huge in paint, just go to "image/stretchskew" and cut it down by %50 or so...

thanks for the paint idea it worked. i'm also suprised that people like it. here at home i know my friends will be like. thats stupid. or sumtihg. those of you who saw my gun i posted a while back yeah my friends thought i did a crappy job on it. one of them was like jeez thats stupid to have made the foregrip out of two pieces of wood. i did that because we didnt have any thicker wood so i had to double it. you could barely tell where the wood merged.

 

theres one i'm trying the other one and if i get it i'll edit this post

lol another good idea I saw was some one wired an e99 to a flood light sensor that was mounted on a tripod and hidden in a bush it was the funniest thing walking in front of that and then being lit up  with no one accutally standing there shooting the gun.

yeah ive got two guns so that wouldnt be a prob. you could also use the trigger. i could still fire it. i'm trying to get the other pic up

man, if only i where smart..... 

cant you get a motor for the bottom of it. just use a servo to turn it on.

hook a servo to a leaf switch (microswitch). then use that to trigger a motor. you can pretty easily mount one switch on each side of the servo to reverse the polarity on a motor. if you need help let me know
