Easy RC Bomb Drop
[Not my design, re-upload from Thingiverse as the original owner hasn't posted in a few years]

Note: I've remixed a variant of the Bomb_Drop_Release_Arm. The metal gear 9g servos I use are taller than plastic ones by a 1-2mm. Use these if the servo pushes the arm against the side of the case, preventing smooth operation.

Original Post;

BOMBS AWAY!!! After watching the FliteTest battleship episode, I thought the RC community could use a better easy bomb drop, so this is what I came up with. Using only one servo and basic tools, this print quickly and easily snaps together to allow you to drop up to eight bombs sequentially.

This is an easy print, but will require some knowledge of RC transmitter/channel setup to get working correctly. Please feel free to ask questions, but make sure you watch the build video to get everything setup correctly.

What you need (beside the printed parts):
1x 9g servo
1x linkage stopper (or small screws/nuts)
screwdriver
pliers
hobby knife
loctite (optional)
servo tester (optional)

I love sharing my designs with you, so if you print this model, please consider tipping me. Someday I might be able to take flight lessons... :) Thank you!

If anyone is interested in purchasing this fully assembled, please contact me.

Also, please share your makes and comment below if you have any ideas for improvements.
