Cap1, he was talking about using one of those little airhogs planes not a regular RC unit. Please try to keep your reply in perspective as that was what I was responding to.  :huh


you don't know much aboutg r/c, do ya?

OK, I  had time to add to this now.

9 out of 10 r/c models are so incredibly overpowered it's not funny. i have at least 4 that'll launch in less than a 5 foot ground roll. and that's on a grass strip. even my 80" p51 only needs 6 to 10 feet if i push her.
 mounting cameras on these aircraft is no big deal. there are plenty of small cameras, that don't require massive batteries. we've done it at our r/c club. one guy was flying his by only using a tv monitor. hell,. he landed on our aircraft carrier that way.

I think he should follow in the Jap footprints and place paint balls on ballons so they drop at a certain point. Hopefully hitting one of the other team players.

Yall can tell them that yall are so good the birds even team up with ya. :)

Get one of those giant water balloon sling shots and load it up with a bucket of paint balls. Fire it at the other side's lines and claim it as a cluster bomb.

Pretty soon, unmanned droids will unload barrels of paint onto a bunker with paintball wannabees sitting inside trying to command their own drones.  :rolleyes:

I like it because there's something relatively new each time. Speedball turns into an FPS game too fast. Play-Repeat-Play-Repeat-Play-Repeat. :(

I guess I like paintball in the way people like the NFL or baseball or even people who enjoy dueling 1v1.  The rules are set prior and the field is symmetrical.  The greater skill, teamwork, and speed will win.  I also enjoy it because there is no better feeling than catching an unwitting player in his bunker over the top.  :D

lol. One of the fellow teams at the field we play at have a paintball bazooka and a paintball tank. we're thinking about designing a mortar or boozka or something.

also i was talking to my team captain. he said that we can take his wireless camera's and go to the field before the game starts to "scout" the fields. then place camera's in the most important bases and on trees watching the main roads!
