WIP that's too difficult to fire safely. Start by activating #1, let the "bomb" settle into the cradle. Then, lower VTOL. If your speed of adjustment on VTOL is good, this will fling the bomb forward to a firey impact. Or, you'll blow the whole thing up. Been messing with this for a while now and am leaving it alone while I re-think the design. Feel free to work at it (or ignore it! :) I think I will revisit my version .01 which used gravity, a forward counter weighted arm , and its own detacher. But not today, I need to step away from this idea for a little bit.
