r/c skydiving?

[shedao 0]

So in my hump-day boredom I was surfing the web and saw a model paraglider for sale on a skydiving gear site. Did a google search and came up with tons of links on remote control skydiving! As a kid I flew model airplanes but never even dreamed of dropping little men from them: http://www.olywa.net/yosemiteflash/rcprchpg.htm


As a newbie "juan" http://www.olywa.net/yosemiteflash/ljrcpr1.htm has more jumps than me so I'm kind of jealous

Yeah.... IIRC there's a kit you can buy that you hook the skydiver up to and he drops off. You can then RC him in.. Do a search on here, it's come up a few times

That is soooo coool
I wonder if they could add a couple of more servo's to control pulling down the front risers. Try swooping in one of these little guys.

Screw models and servos - stick some motors on the thing and kick a shop dummy out the door with a righ on its back.... hmmm perhaps something for Arizona that one....

Groundzero has the r/c wingo plane and the r/c skydiver that hooks up to it... ask him how it works...
