Chris Mc Nair has been playing about with things.

Boomerang flying wing UAV parachute failsafe hatch test. from Gary Mortimer on Vimeo.

To be fired by the Millswood crashinator, and oh so close to an off the shelf OBC airframe!The first thing to be added whilst thinking about what actually might be allowed, the second thing is being added but now there's a new second thing so that might make it a third thing.All a bit of a secret.The crashinator can also control cameras!

    Hello Gary
    Very nice gimmick and I love that plane too. Could you please give some information about the aircraft ?
    Thank you.

    Stopping the props would be a very simple thing, we will make sure that's in.

    Yes eating the parachute line would be bad. The other reason is safety. We don't want it going any further then it has if the fail safe has triggered.

    Thanks for the comment Patrick!
