I’m trying to make a payload delivery system for my P4A. Any suggestions?

Just looking to have some fun with friends and whatnot.

I’m pretty handy, just looking for ideas.

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forum dcap.
There are many threads on this you might like to look through .
Just type in ..payload drop ...in this Google Custom Search
( type in the middle not the top ) and you will see what you might be looking for .

I figured out how to make a pretty legit one. I bought a lid switch for a washing machine and fastened it to a bracket. I’m wiring it up now. I’ll post more pics and info when I’m done.

I was going down the same path as you when I found this drop device below. Simple, elegant, and pretty slick. It works perfectly on my P3S. He's working on improving the design for P4's.
