I love the USB rockets must get one. I saw a project where a guy had 6 of them all controlled by the same GUI on Ubuntu. Quality!

What would be impressive if you could increase the amount of things it could shoot to say 100. Then it would be great :)

yeah that would be cool - although that was helped because obviously 6 x 3 rockets each gave him quite a good weapons package to deploy!!

tbh, from a design point of view,
the usb rocket lauchers suck, weve got two here as samples and they need AA batteries, damnit when was the last time you needed batteries when you plugged in an immobile usb device.

should be able to run the motors off the 5v feed that usb gives it i reckon.

plus the springs mean they aint got a great range on them.



dunno, might just a cheap chinese knockoff, but the missles wait for a blooming sound to play before firing  :evil:  :roll:  :roll:  :roll:
