“FAKE!”
I’m not so sure, although the accuracy was impressive given there was no aiming reticle on the pad that I could see.
If the recoil was engineered to be through the center of mass, the gun would point the same even though the aircraft was moving away from the target.
The mannequins blew up because they were loaded with a commonly available impact-sensitive explosive.
I was surprised that he blew the machine up at the end, that was a pretty expensive device any way you look at it.
No, it’s definitely fake.
1) no upper receiver assembly—just a barrel
2) instant power-up and take-off?
3) HUD on tablet is black & white, first-person feed is color?
4) glitchy shadows from matching CG environment to actual environment
5) very small (but noticeable) jumps and jerks of copter due to a CG object being parented to an imperfect matchmoving solution
6) obviously fake muzzle flash on flash-suppressed barrel
7) same machine gun sound for every shot (there would be SOME variance)
Cool concept, great CG work, and an entertaining accent. Fun video, but ultimately fake.
