Predator UAV

[ShadowsfeaR]

Hey, Ima be making a Predator UAV, but I need a few questions answered.

1.) Whould it be possible to make it so you CAN NOT mount the UAV, but use an item specifically designated for the UAV to take controll of it?

Note for #1: I understand you could probably use a script very similar to the 'Remote Control'

2.) Would it be possible to fire a middle but have a camera view of it?

Will be makin' the Predator sometime today (2/7/10) maybe.

Im pretty sure the Point of view is do-able
But the Remote Control addon Wont let you stop controlling the vehicle.
And you can only use the Remote controll in one direction(Where your looking at)

If you press the jet button then you can get out while using the RC.

I came in here to distinguish the difference between a UAV and a Predator missile.
I proceeded to get confused. Is it really an Unmanned Aerial VEHICLE? More like UAW?

MW 2 screws with you. Predator IS the UAV's name, and in MW 2, the 'UAV' fires it's missile, hence predator missile.

YES, there is no person in it. It's unmanned, but people monitor it on a satellite computer and can controll it.

I totally forgot about the Predator Drone, I kept referring to the missile as a 'Predator'.

Anyway.... you could make it like the Hanglider.

I want it non-mountable. But in terms of maybe how it flys, maybe.

I think the corner of the laptop's handle has too many vertices.

Thats awesome but can we get different Views of the Laptop? The screen doesnt seem Squarish...

[Comatose]

I have an idea, you open the laptop, click, and it zooms in on the screen, where you make selections on coordinates and such. Then you get a view of a colorless picture of the camera on the UAV and watch as it flies from a set takeoff point then fly and bomb the set coordinates you put in. Also, when you test this, may I be a beta tester?
