Bell Lands Shenanagins part: 2
This thing is a technological marvel. First of all, it was completely unmanned, not even radio guided. But how it was guided and stabilized was truly amazing, so I'll break it down into three parts:
•Gyroscope: The main part of the stabilization. It is placed in the front. And whenever the body turns, the gyro turns back, which affects electrical sensors, and those move the control surfaces
•Compass: This is more of the guidance. Before launch, a mechanic will adjust a small compass, making it point to the target location. And if the aircraft tipped away, the compass would send signals too, which, again, would move the surfaces
•Tiny ball in a bigger ball filled with special fluid: This mechanism uses gravity for stabilisation. A small, magnetic ball sinks to the bottom of the bigger ball, which has a small electromagnet, and whenever the plane tipped, the weakening of the magnetic strength would, again, be sent to the sensors, and you know the rest
(Activate 3 to launch)

@SPWithLizzie that not a v-1, that’s a E-2
@LunarEclipseSP
Yeah, basically a better V-1
Flying bomb?
