Having just looked again at my last post I would like to point out to
readers that the model tanks discussed on this site all use harmless
paintballs which are used with all necessary safety equipment and we
have an exemplary safety record.
Arming an amateur-built remote-controlled vehicle of any kind with a
lethal firearm is not only moronic, but almost certainly illegal in most
jurisdictions throughout the world because of gross-negligence.
Before anyone starts thinking about such things, they should build an
unarmed vehicle and operate it for 1,000 hours without a control failure
(electronic or human) of any kind to understand the difficulty of the
task. Then, the legal issue still applies, but at least at that point
we can't call them total idiots.
