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).
Love your cockatoo buddy! We lost our Greater Sulphur Cockie Bill two years ago to old age. He was with us for 43 years and we think he was close to 70 years old. He looked exactly like your little friend. I just cannot imagine having them in the neighborhood getting into everything. How wonderful!
@@cucumber_999 the US placed land mines in several countries including Vietnam, Korea and Afghanistan, but mostly stopped using them in 1991. In 2014, the US set a policy limiting their use to Korea. On Jan. 31, 2020, the secretary of defense in Trump's administration reversed that policy, and as far as I know Biden has not reintroduced the ban.
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
The fact that you can semi accurately launch a projectile that can take somones toe off while being barely visible and only the impact being audible is both incredibly cool and terrifying
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. Props and respect you for all the efforts, all the best!
@@Ididathing You're very welcome. Yeah I can see where you're coming from. Regardless i still think you should share the ideas that pushed even your boundaries, at least a few that you don't want to pursue forward and are happy for people to potentially replicate. Because judging by your garage youve had some near misses. And im sure just as much as me, everyone following you would be intrigued to hear about the near misses that almost ended it all (God forbid).
Yeah it's great to have a light sensor as your release as you fly it above yourself and others. Totally hilarious XD rawr!! Let have the servo accidentally release and have a lawn dart hit a target you weren't aiming for! So random?, Right!!
100%. He had me breathing out my nose with the Afghan bit, kept me warm and tingly by cutting barefoot, had me calling my mom to tell her all about him when he ate metal, had me calling city hall with the cig in the machine, and after the swastika I'm on my way to K Jewelers to buy a ring. Never seen this dude before, now I sub. I am also jew.
I love that this dude has basically just taught the entire Internet how to backyard-mechanic their own kinetic bombardment system but refused to put a horse at risk. Wholesome.
@@TheonSeverasse oh god the explosive one that goes into the sunroof of that stolen car the scariest part about it has to be that theres no shot sound, theres no loud plane sounds, theres no people shouting, and hell, you cant even really see the 25cm drone at 500m in the sky theres just all of a sudden an explosion in the middle of your assault group, no warning, nothing
@@lavantant2731 And anyone with a few hundred bucks could pull it off without immediately being caught. I'm *really* not looking forward to the next fifty years or so of warfare with these things being used as weapons by anyone with a few hundred bucks and the knowledge of how to solder.
IF Kerbal Logic applies in real life, you need to angle your fins a few degrees, this way it should be stabilized during the fall by rotating around, like a bullet with a riffled barrel
1:15 I was never told about this in any of my US history classes (as an American) in regards to the Vietnam war. I'm terrified to know what other monstroseties our country has used on other people in times of war.
"I don't really know what this test showed" I think this test demonstrated that you have a device that can essentially drop bullets, which can go through metal and shatter a car windshield.
Only in the centre is it really desert, near the coastline and quite far inland is really beautiful full of forest and large grassland like in the video
Your biggest issue here is accuracy, but you said it yourself: They used to throw out thousands of those things. Accuracy wasn't quite the goal, it's the amount of space covered by the deadly, metal hail. 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.
Maybe a barrel of some type too, pvc pipe or if you wanna get super fancy a 3D printed one with rifling to maybe give it a bit of spin. Wouldn’t be much because it’s only gravity based but might help a lot
@@tylerleroy5935 No, with the swastika config the fins would still the perpendicular to the ground (90 degrees), whereas I'm suggesting making them less than perpendicular, so some angle less than 90 but probably more than 45
I think you could make the darts guided, you could have a larger/longer plastic shell with electronics and a tungsten penetration core. The guiding shell could even separate at a height of 30m or so and deploy a parachute or something if you wanted to make it cheaper.
@@F5cThunder not sure a guided dart is the same as a bomb… For example making guided missiles is obviously highly Illegal while making guided model rockets is absolutely okay.
@@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.
Theres always a thing you need to keep in mind for something like this: wind speed and direction Its possible to use it to help with hitting something as well.
I got detained at the airport with BB guns, they said that because you can't really distinguish them from real guns, people use them to hold up 7-11s and stuff.
This video is exactly why we still need William on RU-vid. We can't lose a mathematics guy or else no one will be able to find out how to get to terminal velocity.
I did a thing, I feel like this is just a way for you to try and make your "Can rockets be used to plant trees" actually works Since with a drone you can choose where to plant the tree sap Plus if it lands on a guy, i guess you can argue it makes for a good fertilizer.
You are a wonderful thing, IDAT. You are in equal parts concerning and entertaining. 11/10 would NOT recommend to safety inspectors, but would definitely recommend to friends.

I Did A Thing actually designing an attack drone that has now been battle tested in a warzone has gotta be in the top 10 things this channel has done lmao
This channel is the cross section of brilliantly creative engineering, with paradoxically dry humor and dank memery. If you collab with StyroPyro, I can die happy.
"So I thought to myself, well if this drone can drop something that heavy, why not make the projectile as light as possible but pack it with enough chemicals to make the fire department take notice? Also, while I was at it I decided to take another look at that laser guidance system since lasers are kind of what I do." I am down.
Fun fact: Dji, the drone maker, has military contracts for the chinese government. They are also backed by chinese state enterprises, which allowed them to undercut the competition and become the dominant company in the drone space. Buying consumer drones from them is basically subsidizing the development of military flight systems, etc. These military contracts also explain why a relatively small hobby company (as many people see them) needs and is able to afford 2 huge skyscrapers as headquarters. Their track record with data privacy from the data it collects from consumer products is also not great, since obviously that data is harvested and sent to china to help train their algorithms and AI systems. The Russian invasion of Ukraine has also been great for them, both in terms of sales from both sides and data collected from an active conflict. If China ever invades Taiwan we can expect thousands of dji drones to be involved. Dji is also in sanction lists due to its involvement in the Uyghur genocide and is considered by the US as a chinese military company.
Everyones talking about the drone but 3:00 the guy literally ATE METAL like it's nothing and I forgot everything about the video now I'm just concerned...
Dude... The comment above you literally says - "Some Ukrainian drone operator is probably using your video as a reference when designing their own 'variations'."... Posted 2 months ago. Creepy AF
This *would* be accurate for well-timed grenades, though. Still, the pure kinetic kill was accurate enough for "proof of concept". He merely needed better guidance. With just a few more upgrades in technical quality, a single drone would be an accurate antipersonnel weapon.
Look jerk. We only know if we're breaking the laws of someone decides to tell us the laws we're breaking. What do you want good content or drone laws? Hahahahhaha I imagine the laws broken is plentiful! Just don't tell us and we'll never know!
This was great! I run a lathe at work so this made me crack up! We make action figures and little hearts out of bending the metal shavings 😂never made spaghetti with them!
@@convolutedpeppercorn1078 Have you hear of "Loitering munitions" or suicide drones? Even first world countries use them as a budget missile/reconnaissance drone.
@@sinothandonqulo4188 He's not being a useless commentator like other youtubers stretching out a 10second long video to 15minutes. This is how this guy makes his content, and its amazing. Yes he could just show the clips of the drone dropping stuff but we want to know how he got there.
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...
Ey boi, use oil on your workpiece on the lathe while cutting steel, especially tool steel! Easiest is to just use a brush or squeeze bottle and constantly apply it to cool and lubricate it. You'll use way less bits up in the process! Love your stuff! You can absolutely use your lathe on anything, with proper coolant!
i'm starting to think this man gave this drone's blueprint to the ukranians so they could do the same except with grenades, this man now has the potential to be hired by lockheed martin
And he can use his lathe to make magnesium and aluminum shavings, and add it to black powder to make flash powder which can melt metal, and be used to make flash grenades or regular grades for that matter.
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.)
"Last episode i made a thermonuclear bomb and made sure that Finland doesn't exist, now im going to craft a death ray that can dissolve planets." -i made a thing probably
