      I'm surprised they don't just use racing drones with bombs firmly attached. A high quality FPV racing drone costs less than $1000. Strap a high explosive to it, fly it straight into your target, flip the switch, bam 100% accuracy. $1000 is a small price in military terms, and a well trained drone pilot can land one of those suckers on top of a car going down the highway at 60mph with very little chance of failure.
      Edit: FBI, I'm simply speculating on military capabilities, I do not intend to use this knowledge in any way shape or form. Please don't shoot my cats.

    Friendly reminder to never use a laser, especially a bright green laser like that, without goggles. That color green isn't made by a laser diode, it's made by splitting higher frequency, which means that it's hurting your eyes at two different wavelengths lol. Even with goggles that filter out visible light wavelengths, leakage of those higher frequency wavelengths past the splitter can cause permanent damage (faster than you can even blink in the case of many cheap ebay lasers).

    Military drones generally drop their payload in an arc (drop it while moving forward) which helps accuracy if dropped at the correct time, the horizontal movement reduces vertical drag and thus vertical deviation
    Basically, payload dropping down wiggles about as it falls and changes direction based on where the tip is pointing at any given time, if it is dropped at speed at an angle then the tip starts out facing forwards then the weight pulls the tip down slowly until it is fully pointing down, like trying to land a glider/plane rather than divebombing it straight into the ground

    This guy is truly pushing the boundaries of creativity and also taking crude humour to its absolute limitations. You have to give it to the man for taking you off guard with all the spontaneous and random gestures, metaphors, analogies he comes up with. It's almost like he combines creative crude humour and extreme science. Putting the two together you have this crazy comedic mad man that will do anything to fulfil the young curious souls inside us. I admire this mans work, I truly wonder what else has come to his mind for creating content that he could not upload for how extreme it truly was.
    @i did a thing - You should upload a video of all of the content that you could never upload and go over the stories and the way of thinking you go through before you attempt a new experiment. What brainstorming you go through, preparation and timing involved. I would love to see it.

      @@F5cThunder I looked it up and it seems it depends on where you live. In some US States it’s even legal to make a full ballistic missile (without the warhead obviously). In other even the guided darts would be problematic. Most likely nobody would actually come after you for them, as long as you stay on private property. But I’d look up local laws before doing anything of this kind.
      I live in Germany and I’ve flown a guided model missile with a small payload (on private property with explicit permission from the owner) and nobody has come after me for that. So I think as long as you are taking proper safety precautions you’ll be fine.

    Ive added a simple FC and fins that rotate to my darts, with a fromt facing wireless camera (the one that runs on 9v batterys and cost now $5) and when the drone drops the dart, i swap my controller to "Profile 2" , which puts the drone into auto-hover, and switches to controlling the dart. My fpv goggles switch to what is infront of the dart and within reason i can "guide" the dart to a "target" ive painted on the ground. The next step im experimenting with is getting both my drone and the dart to use a green laser dot as a point to concentrate on and move to, kind of like in the movies/real life. At night it does ok but in the day time im having trouble staying on target. I use the word "guide" instead of fly because at the speeds the dart drops at, you cant really control it like an rc glider. Although I could explore that, maybe with adding larger "wings" to the dart for " lift' while using the smaller back fins for directional control...

    In other words:
    You just need to get a bigger drone, a bigger release mechinism for more payload, and test it on someone's nearby hometown.
    Or alternatively to a bigger drone with a large ammunition count, go for many small drones and atta- erm, experiment on the town with a swarm like a biblical plague.

    So, some extra context behind the US's "rods from God" concept:
    At the time, and to this day, there has been an international treaty meant to keep space "demilitarized," by banning things like nuclear weapons from being placed in orbit. However, one thing the treaty did not ban is kinetic weapons. This was because, at the time the treaty was signed, this wasn't even thought of as a possibility. After the treaty was signed, however, to anyone who wanted weapons in space, it became the only possibility.
    Both sides during the cold war did look into these kinds of weapons, since it would be a "loophole" that would allow them to place WMDs in orbit without violating the treaty. Thankfully, while they could find loopholes in the laws of man, they could not find one in the laws of physics. In order to drop a massive, heavy projectile on your enemy from orbit, you first must get it into orbit, a task that would make the Apollo missions look like a model rocket project. This, along with the development of better anti-satellite weapons, made such a project unfeasible.
    There has been renewed interest lately, however. Humanity is likely a few decades away from beginning mining in space, and if you build your projectiles in orbit, you circumvent the whole "how do I get this massive lawndart off the ground" issue. This, along with better stealth technology and anti-satellite weapon countermeasures, could make this kind of weapon viable, as a treaty-friendly orbital weapon of mass destruction.

    By the way, the way most bombers keep their bombing accurate is by introducing forward momentum, but thats extremely complex.
    A computer would, however, be able to calculate the area that it *should* hit via equations, but even then, that's a lot of work, and this did pretty good regardless.
    There's a reason most drones aren't quad rotors. But fixed wings instead.
    (Mine defusal drones are four rotor, but they use explosives instead of a kinetic projectile.)
