How to find out the height and speed of the RC planes? - Page 3

You could, of course, build a chicken gun...

I think that episode of Mythbusters must have aired on pay TV a while ago.

Aired on SBS last night .......

damage caused by a frozen chook is the same as the damage caused by an un

Probably more than you Phyllis.

Yes I did. I thought it was misguided, naive and clearly
written with a lack of knowledge of it's subject matter.

What's this "we" business? You hearing voices Pill?

As a *WAY* more interesting exercise in what you won't be able to do anyway,
why not consider a way to track all these planes like an ATC and display it
on a PC?

BTW, do your kids enjoy watching the planes?

I'd hate to think what you all do on the motorways. You must realize that
those of us in America who took all the flak from Australians over our
political and military choices can now safely assume the Australian mental
health industry took some hush money sometime after they discovered lithium.
It's embarrassing to look at this, as you make the best of our trolls look
like complete and hopeless punters! Smile, you're on Idiot Camera 4000 miles

tennis court and the park. We were playing tennis and the visibility was no
good,
a kid put some LEDs on his plane and intend to fly it like a Blackwidow, but
it was
interfered by our tennis court lightning. There are trees along the tennis
court, but
there is a 5 meter openning at this exit. I am poised to design my robot
that will
defend this 5Width*10Height meter openning. Any intruding planes will be
shot
down with glue filled watergun to disable the blade and cotton wires to drag
it to
the ground.

Any tricks to calculate the height, velocity and direction of a flying
vehicle with a
single 2MP image sensor and some computing devices?

It's lucky you don't know how to achieve this. If anyone told you how to do
it, it's also lucky that you would not understand them.

Okay, so now we're well and truly off with the cuckoos......

If you are really worried about this (I can see it could be a problem),
ask your council to erect some netting to prevent the planes getting
through.

**  Under the  "Air Navigation Orders",  section 95.21,  part 4.1

A (untethered) model aircraft shall not be flown:


(a) unless visibility permits continuous visual contact by then operator
with the aircraft or

(b)  in cloud


Part 4.2:

A model aircraft shall not be flown.

(c)  within 30 metres horizontally or at any height over any group of people
or occupied building;

(d)  at a height exceeding 300 feet above terrain unless the flight takes
place within the confines of a ( Department of Aviation approved)  model
aircraft flying area.


I very much doubt that any council has given permission for such an
*illegal*  activity as the idiot OP alleges.
