If you plan on attaching an airsoft gun or anything else involving a projectile on the plane, forget it. It is against AMA rules and generally a bad idea these days.
Where will this be flying? Near an AMA field? Near houses, people and property? You need to be careful. You don't want to interfere with a flying site or cause any comotion or damage that could turn people against local RC flyers.
If you goal is something besides shooting and you are in a safe area, I'd look at a cheap electric heli or small electric/glider type plane.
We were just going to use it for surveillance. The field where we play airsoft is (to the best of my knowlege) nowhere near an AMA field. Idon't think that the field is within flying range of any personal property that isn't on the field as it is. We fully intend to warn people of the fact that there will be a model aircraft flying on the field, so there will be no surprises.
It would probably be a good idea to use a heli instead, since i'm used to flying those. (Dunno why I didn't think of this myself.) Thanks for the help.
