Might be a skill worth picking up for SHTF.
Some will die in hot pursuit
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche

I have trouble getting them airborne but getting them back down is easy. Don
I'm really good at finding them on the ground. 4 in the last 6 years while out wandering the woods around my place. Seems the neighbors here in the boon docks are spys! Never attempted flying any.
Great target practice. ------------------Ray
I'm guessing he ain't buying all those grenades.
Take off and landing are easy: Just press the right button.
Also Return to Home is as easy as pressing a button.
Shooting down a quadcopter is a crime. Most will send back telemetry about current location, so expect a visit from Po Po.

I'm thinking that the pin in pulled by hand & the mechanism holds the spoon in until dropped.
Reminds me of a "Skippy Bomb."

Then don't fly the darn thing through my air space!
Things have changed. You don't own the space over your property, you can't receive radio waves on your property without permission of the sender.

Yes. The release mechanism uses a light activated sensor that gets triggered when you turn the light on on the drone.

If you look closely you can see the collar holding the grenade is 3d printed.
you can see the layer lines from the printer.
Any low flying grenade armed drone that invades MY AIRSPACE will be shot down with my surface to air shotgun. -------------------------Ray
Great. So then it falls on you and detonates.

No way. i have a early warning system. Model 37 Winchester 12Ga, squeezed 32" barrel full choke.😀 -------------------Ray
Here is maybe a better idea to get rid of drones over your property. Use your drone as a weapons platform armed with net, get above intruder drone and drop net on drone. Seen a video where a falcon or a hawk took down a drone once.
There was a young Russian fella on U-Tube I think who built drones to deliver explosives. Had to be more powerful than grenades. Anyone see that?---------------Ray
I might have access to a SP-10 with TTT-s shot.
Nope, I can not.
I flew my neighbor's drone into a small tree....... He has not invited me to try it again
My son had a pro quality dj maverick drone. The last software update grounded it at our house . We live less than 3 miles from an airforce base. Software prevented it from flying . Cool tool up until then .
That seems unfortunate. I wonder if some kind of refund can be had.

He sold it due to his interest in hobbies changed. The company "forced " the update to stay on the FAA ` s good side . They , and the airforce, take the safety of their F_15 strike eagles seriously .
