@robryk@qoto.org It could be why we haven't seen them before, they weren't able to solve this imbalance. I've seen some such experiments a year ago, also with RPG but never gained much traction. In theory this could be compensated by firmware and everyone now does their own firmwares, so maybe that's how it was solved.
I don't mean the CG shift impacting how the thing flies, but impacting whether the recoil only pushes the drone backward, or whether it also rotates it. Do you expect recoil-generated torques to be compensatable with dynamic control without rotating by more than a few degrees? (Seeing that it fires in bursts.)
@kravietz Ah, maybe it's shooting blanks? (I don't really know how the "blank adapter" should look like.)
