So while you know much about helicopters (toys)...your ignorance..self
admitted of firearms leads you to believe that this is a Bad Thing?
Sorry to hear that.
Why sorry? I have met lots of people who have no interest in neither
helicopters nor metalworking, but I have never felt sorry in any way
about that. They have their interests, and I have mine. That's just
the way it should be.


And if those same people stated that Lathes are so dangerous that they
should suck in their operators....you would be fine with that.?


I know you love to play the troll, and you see guns and can't get past
that, but the guy is saying that the RC helicopter is not a reliable or
stable enough platform to make him comfortable placing a firearm upon
it. *Unless you spend serious bucks, this same prohibition applies to RC
and pyrotechnics. *It isn't the gun that is dangerous, it is placing the
gun on a platform that has potential for random operations, including
random firing.


Oh..then this would be like handing a firearm to a drunken/doped up
Leftwinger?


Now define "serious bucks" and define what "adequate precautions" would
be when arming a small flying craft with a projectile weapon.


Ill be waiting with interest as you define the problem, the individual
issues and so forth. *It should be an interesting exercise and perhaps
it may be suitable discussion for a remote flying craft suitable for the
upcoming removal of Leftwing extremists in the next few years.

Now if the OP would care to answer my question, rather than having
someone else do it for him, it would be my pleasure in responding to
him.

How the **** does you pea-brain manage to turn every serious
discussion into a right versus left hate fest? Robert has 20 years'
experience flying radio controlled helicopters. How many do you have?
Take all the time you need to answer. We'll all be waiting with bated
breath for you ad-hominum *attack or other worthless response.
Asshole.


Your hangover is noted with no pity whatsoever.


Whatever the **** that's supposed to mean.


And the OP is where again?


I don't know, nor do I care.


Btw..Ive about 40 yrs of firearms knowledge, am a published author on
the subject


Cites, please?

and am an accomplished tinker with complex machinery, not to
mention I make a living repairing, updating, installing CNC machinery.


How much of that machinery is radio controlled? How much if it is
radio controlled by controllers that cost a couple of hundred bucks,
mass produced in China?

Dude, you just posted that you GROSSED $7K so far this year taking
factories apart, and spent more than a quarter million. I don't really
think you can claim to make a living doing the things you listed.

I grossed more than that last month DESIGNING controllers for complex
machinery.


Was there anything else you wish to vent your spleen on?


Not at this time, thank you.
