Long Range Claymore Remote
Normally when I have an idea or want to convert something for an airsoft application, I go to mad-scientist Shoe who has the engineering background to bring said idea to life. In this case, I wanted to extend the range of my remote claymore and the 40+ feet that the modified garage door opener just wouldn’t cut it. I wanted more of a scenario piece where if the OPFOR didn’t get what they want or certain terms were broken, we could ‘detonate’ a prop remotely from any distance. So on a sunny SoCal Saturday, we met at his place and went to work.
This is a custom remote solution for setting off a Super Cell Dev airsoft claymore (ASC7) via FRS Radio. Our input box allows any source to be used… timers, garage door openers, etc but so far, we have only tested the FRS Radio. We used an old Motorola radio we had lying around and about $15 worth of parts from a local electronic store. This setup is intended to be used for airsoft scenario play in a powder application as remotely detonating a bb-throwing device from 2+ miles away is not only irresponsible, but a dangerous possibility of blind fire.
