Turn your drone into a pizza delivery aircraft with this payload release mechanism. We joke about pizzas because it seems to be an obsession of the News Channels, but aside from pizzas there are lots of other uses. For example, with it you could build an emergency response drone to deliver life buoys to struggling swimmers, or in sport fishermen are using drones to drop bait just where they need it.
The device itself is very simple. It uses a sliding pin mechanism, driven by a high quality metal-geared servo to cover and open a slot, which the hanging of a payload can be passed through.
We now sell two versions of this payload release mechanism:Â A single release version and a double throw version – please select as required.
Caution: The servo is position is controlled via a spare PWM auxiliary channel and 2/3 pos switch on your remote control. Please set the appropriate amount of travel in the remote control so that the dropper can work within the mechanical travel of the mechanism, otherwise the servo may be burnt.
