Title: i need a UAV model
Post by: DR_EVIL on 06 Nov 2002, 18:16:41

im trying my hand at public release modding for the first time, im trying to make a UAV scout vehicle to provide forward air recon for troops on the ground.

model specs.
1 foot in diameter (to give the illusion of higher altitude when ai flys it)

a circular disk with a hole in the center were two counter rotating propelers spin (can be done or 1 will do) underneath 3 poles come out and meet not to far underneath it were a reflective sphere (camera housing) is attached to the poles.
as for landing aparatus poles sticking down to the ground will do. no pilot rendering (duh)

LOL

Your talking about the Cypher UAV aren't you.
I made this model a while ago, but I don't know texturing or cpp so its still in the model phase.

I assume you mean this thing right below.

*edit*
My pic may look a little odd, but thats just because of the angle I took it at.

well thats basicly were i got the idea but i would prefer the camera underneath instead of ontop, it would let you fly higher out of accurate fire range. top camera means ya gotta fly lower. basicly the same thing but with landing gear ontop smaller and upside down :)
