You can now buy this terrifying flamethrower to attach to your drone
SUMMARY
Drones are being used by companies from Amazon to Uber, but one company built a flamethrower you can hook up to your personal drone for all your fire-spewing purposes.
In a video from company Throwflame, the TF-19 WASP flamethrower drone attachment is seen spewing long streams of fire into the air and engulfing dead bushes in flames.
Although Throwflame advertises using the flamethrower drone for mundane things like cleaning up vegetation and getting rid of wasp nets, the video paints a terrifying view for what the future of drone flight could entail.
It's important to note that the $1,500 price tag is only for the flamethrower attachment itself. You'll have to buy the drone separately — the one that Throwflame recommends for its flamethrower will cost you at least $1,500.
Check out the features of the TF-19 WASP flamethrower drone attachment and what it can do:
Throwflame envisions the flamethrower drone being used for tasks such as "clearing vital infrastructure, igniting remote vegetation, and eliminating pests."
In the past, flamethrowing drones have been filmed burning off garbage and debris from electrical wires.
The flamethrower attachment can be used with any drone that has a payload capacity— how much weight the drone can hold — of 5 pounds or more. In the video, the TF-19 WASP is attached to a DJI S1000 octocopter drone, which sells for id="listicle-2639318262",500.
The DJI S1000 drone goes for id="listicle-2639318262",500 on websites like eBay and in stores such as BH.
