The problem with a police officer is that he thinks he is God and you can't tell God what to do. Show him your ID when asked. Have we seen the recent glut of cops arresting people (some times shooting them) simply because they questioned why the cop wants to see their ID? Just show it, you're...

I saw the whole thing. My opinion is the cops stuck their foot in a pile and were trying to figure out whose pant leg they were going to wipe it on. "We're detaining you for absolutely no reason, unless you count not buy us a box of Crispy Cremes...".

Watch this and decide for yourself:

I think the idea those Russian (hic) Fishermen overlooked was throwing the damned thing as far as you could. Stuuuuupiddd!

Yeah, but it's hard to fish with a rocket unless, of course, it's a rocket propelled spear!

Model Rockets are the future of modern Aerial Defense.

Yeah, all my rockets were Estes Industries products. Had the best engines too. My favorite engines were the C6-0 Booster and C6-7 Main Stage. If you wanted an engine with a higher Impulse Ratio you went with the Century E Series and F Series, especially the F-100 Booster. That got you up fast...

I guess we're all in agreement, the experiment proves you can do it, the advice is DON'T DO IT ANYMORE!

True. I used to be a member of a NAR Section. We built and flew "Model Rockets", some of which were very sophisticated for the time. That was back when I was 18 Years old, some 53 years ago. I still have a few in my garage, with engines as old as the rockets. Bet their like Dynamite now!

I wonder where he is now, in Afghanistan?

Hey remember that kid that fired a 9 mm handgun from a Quadcopter? When is he due out of prison for that, anyone remember? I think it was,what 20 years?

Instead of spending a bazillion dollars on a project that probably isn't going to do anything more than kill you on its first crash, just buy something that is a proven platform, like a Helicopter!

What was a fun experiment was mixing Nitric Acid and Glycerin. Didn't know what could happen until someone dropped a bottle of it.

I always considered the forum to promote the improvement of

Really, launch rockets from a drone? What's next, a machine gun?

I'm happy just to get the damned thing off the ground into a hover. Most of the time, even before I get the thing trimmed out, it's slamming into something, a tree, my car, the house. I should really give it up and stick with my fixed wing aircraft. At least I know which way it's going.

I can understand. Back in the day when I was a young guy, I took Ground School in High School. I never got to put my body inside a plane, let alone fly it. Of course, back then, it ws open cockpit and double wings (not).

What's interesting is that you have to qualify as a pilot that stands on the ground in one spot. With all the training for this Part 107 Certification, you should be able to fly a small plane as well. The government always makes mountains out of mole hills!

Right...

A crash has some interesting effects on a quad! The guys above know what they are talking about.
