Introduction: RC Balloon Bomber From Clash of Clans

About: I've always been a very creative person and a self confessed video gaming geek. I'm a husband, father, artist and blogger

In this short and simple instructable I'll show you how I made a real flying radio controlled balloon bomber from the popular mobile game Clash of Clans by Supercell.

These skeleton driven hot air balloons are a great way to destroy your opponent's defences in the game, read more here; http://clashofclans.wikia.com/wiki/Balloon.

This RC balloon is so simple to make I'm sure any Clash of Clans fan will love it.


Things Needed

  • Printer
  • I used 200 g/m2 glossy photo paper but basic document paper will work (It's just a bit of fun)
  • Printable balloon bomber template
  • I used a CX-10 quadcopter but any mini RC quadcopter will get the job done
  • Scissors
  • Glue or tape
  • Blue-tack

Step 1: Printing the Template

Let's start by printing out the Clash of Clans balloon template.

In Adobe Photoshop I mirrored the image of the Clash of Clans balloon character found in the fan kit on the official forums http://forum.supercell.net/showthread.php/558714-Clash-of-Clans-Fan-Kit

Step 2: Cutout the Template

Simply cutout the balloon template and stick the two mirrored parts together.

IMPORTANT, make sure the quadcopter propellers have clearance (see image or video)

Step 3: Attaching

Attach the balloon template to the mini quadcopter. I used a small amount of bluetack, but if you can think of a better lighter way let me know in the comments.

Step 4: Let's Fly

You may need to tinker with positioning, wight or settings but enjoy and have fun.

See video for air time, thanks.
