    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.

    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).

    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

    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.

But I’d look up local laws before doing anything of this kind.

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.

    So, some extra context behind the US's "rods from God" concept:
    At the time, and to this day, there has been an international treaty meant to keep space "demilitarized," by banning things like nuclear weapons from being placed in orbit. However, one thing the treaty did not ban is kinetic weapons. This was because, at the time the treaty was signed, this wasn't even thought of as a possibility. After the treaty was signed, however, to anyone who wanted weapons in space, it became the only possibility.
    Both sides during the cold war did look into these kinds of weapons, since it would be a "loophole" that would allow them to place WMDs in orbit without violating the treaty. Thankfully, while they could find loopholes in the laws of man, they could not find one in the laws of physics. In order to drop a massive, heavy projectile on your enemy from orbit, you first must get it into orbit, a task that would make the Apollo missions look like a model rocket project. This, along with the development of better anti-satellite weapons, made such a project unfeasible.
    There has been renewed interest lately, however. Humanity is likely a few decades away from beginning mining in space, and if you build your projectiles in orbit, you circumvent the whole "how do I get this massive lawndart off the ground" issue. This, along with better stealth technology and anti-satellite weapon countermeasures, could make this kind of weapon viable, as a treaty-friendly orbital weapon of mass destruction.

    I agree with your description of soldering. I hate the fact that the slightest twitch in my hand can bump the end of the iron wide enough to move or dislodge whatever tiny component I'm trying to solder.

    Rough idea, but I think you can push the level of madness. Add a booster to the end that ignites when the projectile is approaching the ground, not too early so the trajectory won't spin out of control. A kinetic missile that ignites when it's above the target.
    Crude example: home made rocket fuel (check out "Homemade Rocket Fuel (R-Candy)" by TKOR) using sugar and stump remover, attached to the end of the projectile. Could have an electric cigarette lighter rigged to an Arduino that lights a fuse -> drops the projectile.
    This is all, of course, theoretical. Of course.

    In case you would like to revisit this idea later on: In order to increase accuracy and decrease tumbling you may try to shape the bolts differently.
    Necking down the bolts in the rear and adding bigger fins might just do the job. Basically imitating the classic dart form.
    Alternatively use just a 3- or 4-sided head stuck on a wooden or fiberglass rod with fins in the back (like a Bodkin-Arrow) could also be beneficial for accuracy, but might also increase the negative effect of the wind.

    You probably won't see this but you were soldering at way too high a temp. Try lowering the temp and holding the iron still against the desired location for 5-10 seconds before adding some flux core solder. That should fix your problem.

    • @TheJell3

      The components should also be on the opposite side. Stick them through and connect the ends with solder. Way more convenient and no chance of burning components by hitting them.

      I think the biggest problem is weight distribution. You want the fins to create drag yet be light, and you want the nose to be heavy. The weight in these darts was a bit too distributed. Thinning down the body toward the tail might help.

    • @JWSmythe
      @JWSmythe 2 ปีที่แล้ว +60

      Balanced spinning things help accuracy. Unbalanced, it can tumble. I'm pretty sure that he'll never have the balance required, so fins providing straight drag are about as good as he's going to do.
      There is more physics involved too, with center of mass and center of pressure. The center of pressure should be behind the center of mass. I think he may be accomplishing that with the fins. But not enough to support a good spin.
