Flamethrower Drone ... Fire in the Sky

One for all the Pyro's .. Fire in the Sky

 

[LoneRCRanger]

Really? I can see some great uses for it, like starting forest fires, burning down your neighbor's house, etc. Who, other that a fire department or pyromaniac would want one?

 

[Tentoes]

Fire departments, farmers, forresters, park service people and, of course, evil barefooted drone pilots

 

[LoneRCRanger]

Yeah, and if it crashes with a gallon of Gasoline on board, that could be a real boom!

You guys are not thinking of the Marshmallow potential all you need is a Big Stick......

What about that kid that had a 9mm automatic added to his quadcopter. Wasn't that a treat? So many thing you can do with a quadcopter other than having fun!

Well, the news segment on TNL last week showed some idiots who tied a roman candle to their drone and caused themselves much havoc.

Pop goes the weasel!

A search light would be cool ... not a gun .........

 

[LoneRCRanger]

Another idea --- an Infrared Camera with a long range lens. Be good for night time recon and searches.

I've used my Tarot 650 to drop bait 500 yards out in the lake where the big catfish dwell.

The photo does not justify the dispersal of "bait" 500 yards out. Using a Spinning rod with mono-filament line, that would be some cast. You'd need your quad o drop the line as well.

This is a literal example of the expression "fight fire with fire" ... lol ... the most obvious use being in Forestry, where they set smaller fires to control larger ones ... it's called backburning.

That's one fine looking catfish right there Renov8r

Reminds me of a time I caught one about that size with a couple of friends using a small johnboat.
After deciding on a swim, we put our legs through the arm holes of our vests and were bobbing around in the water drinking some beers
(sounds silly but you hafta try it, you can float chest high out of the water) meanwhile I had the catfish on a stringer tied to my belt loop.
That thing towed me all over that lake ! ... lol ... I spent the afternoon that way, as a human "bobber" hooked to this fish, with a beer in one
hand and a smoke in the other .... what a fond memory ... Thanks for jogging it for me
