I didn’t like how in my 99 Silverado the radio fuse controlled my odometer

Looks like that

They can get some serious altitude

I’d rather keep my feet on the ground

Seems dangerous 🙂

I mean, you've already got a parachute out 🤣

true lol

Stick to boots on the ground

Easy enough to make too for the brave, it's just a lawn mower engine with a prop and cage

🤣

Yeah they’re easy to make til a strong enough breeze comes through

I'm thinking about getting one in the future and seeing what accuracy would look like from you there

Up

Then study em and we can mass produce til we get better equipped

May well do that. Only problem is theyd get bubba'd and that'll mean regulations

4 wheels are sketcky enough

Let's be honest here

A fucking motorized parachute is bubba'd as is 😂

🤣🤣🤣

You're not wrong unfortunately

Still cool as shit tho

Biggest draw for me is that I found a channel where the guy running it has multiple stories of accidentally running from the cops on one. Usually nosy Nellie's calling the law cause they don't understand and they can't pursue him in the air

id rather use a glider than that thing

When I save up for one and find a nice patch of nothing where I can pop off some rounds that might go completely sideways, I'll let y'all know if they're useful 🤣

I really do not think they'd be hard to produce at all

Definitely not, there's guides all over the place. Biggest issue is training. There's a specific feeling you gotta get used to and you have to have some actual muscle to get liftoff

Would be cool to get some aircraft techs in here or pilots

Oh yes

My best friends dad has one of those powered parachutes. His chassis is way bigger than the one pictured though. Pretty loud, definitely no stealth entry

The paramotors are definitely fucking noisy. I would be curious to see if we can find a good stealth solution or if they can get high enough to recon without too much noise

Rather, how high off the ground you wohld have to be to be out of earshot. That sounds a little better

Drones maybe?

I saw mention of the DJI Mavic drones. Those are pretty quiet but theyre cell phone controlled and have GPS on them

And if they're not the mini they have to be FAA registered. Racing drones are much louder but arent limited by FAA regulations. No gps/tracking on most units and theyre DIY. Downfall is theyre much harder to control and the AV hardware is lacking unless youre paying big bucks

Also leave you pretty defenseless unless you have a team

Because they have large video receiver that you wear on your face

Would it be possible to take one of the racing ones that don’t have to be regulated and put quieter motors on them?

Im sure they sell quieter motors But im not positive on performance and whatnot

I’ve played around with some friends cheaper ones just fucking around in the back yard with them, but have absolutely zero expertise with the bigger ones

The racing ones can also be fucking FAST
