"Real" 'Birds of Prey'

Post by Blunt Force Trauma »

The object is to have your streamer cross the path in front of the opponent to foul his prop. Or. . . if you're really good, use the wing's leading edge of your craft and hit the prop of the opponent's plane to snap or unbalance the prop. But of course, that's extremely risky.

I just watched this. Looks like fun.

Years ago the local RC club had a member that attached home-made guns to his RC copter. They would fire a couple of .22 calibre shots each but he didn't get the timing on them right and the recoil would send it into a spin.
