Default Re: Half baked ideas

Ok here's another crazy one, more for the bigger events where we can set up a big layout and let "the public'' watch us do stuff. There are always a few that get REALLY AMPED UP and want to get into the hobby, so let's turn it up to 11.

Build some kind of a people mover like a Bus or Taxi.
I dunno: Town-commuter, Bendy-bus, Double decker, Airport Shuttle, Touring, whatever... Even a Taxi might be cool enough

However make it interactive, in place of a couple passenger seats you have some of the cheap & tiny all-in-one FPV video rigs mounted on a servo or maybe even a 2ch gimbal as 'Passengers'. For each passenger pick up a cheap Video RX display, and use a spare old TX / RX that only runs the servos for moving that passengers VTX.

Maybe you do free rides, or ask for a couple bucks for the tour.

Turn a Wpl D42 Hijet van into a VW Vanagon Type2, "T3" generation (1979-83 round headlights, no lower grille)
