Title: RC Stuff
Post by: peternap on May 16, 2011, 12:46:29 PM
Recently, I bought a Radio Controlled Rock Crawler, took the body off and mounted a GoPro Camera on it, to more efficiently annoy a particular Commonwealths Attorney who was camera shy. People began calling it the Gerald Chaser ;D

I had so much fun being obnoxious with this I decided to look into do other things using RC.

Man, there is a ton of useful stuff to make with these things.

I bought a pan and tilt platform and mounted servos on it. That's turned out to be extremely useful.
I'm going to get servos to push buttons on cameras next week.

There is a whole world in these things for overage children. I may make an RC controlled shotgun for Deer Season.

Gerald Poindexter has escaped the camera for months. It WAS fun watching the Gerald Chaser surprise him as he cut across the lawn to avoid me. ::)
