USB Rocket/Missile Launcher testimonials

I’ve had such great feedback about the USB Missile Launcher software that I thought it would be great to share it.

Sean - 8 December 2006
Bless you David - missiles launched all over the troposphere, biosphere, the Van Allen belts and beyond. Fantastic - thanks.

I just got the Missile Launcher today and purchased a Logitech QuickCam Chat USB connected and them used the maccam drivers and it seems to work just fine. I do have a question: Can I make the video screen any bigger because right now it seems rather small? As for the controls, the launcher seems to respond quite well! I used the camera mounted to the launcher with some very strong rubber bands and it zeroed in well with the launcher.

Thank you so much! :) BTW, your other software looks awesome!

Michael - 16 November 2006
This thing is tremendous fun- I’m really enjoying.

I can testify that the Missile Launcher works as it shot me in the chin from a foot away while I was watching it turn in Test mode and it fired when I was not expecting it!

I’ve had mine for a while now. It gets great distance on a full charge, and terrifies my cat.

Ditto what Paul said. Got the same problem.

Launcher accepts one command and then locks up.

Help!

I also got this for x-mas, bundled software was a bit messed up. The updated software from http://www.dreamcheeky.com looks right, but locks up in Windows. The software runs fine in Linux using wine, but doesn’t move the launcher.

It’s been discovered that you have to plug the Dream Cheeky launcher directly into the USB ports on the motherboard — front connections are typically hubs and those are problematic, so it seems.

Here’s the thread that discusses it:

I recently got a Wireless Missile launcher by DreamCheeky and I cant seem to get it to work. Any Comments?

12. David Wilson - 30 April 2008

Hi There!

I’ve never received any feedback about these launchers before, and unfortunately I do not have one to test against.
I’ll see if I can contact the manufacturers and see what they say about the control sequences for the launcher.

In the mean time, I would recommend that you connect the launcher to a windows box and test it to ensure that it does actually work (I am aware of people that have received new launchers in a faulty state).

Good luck.

David,

I have the same problem with the Wireless Launcher. Am running 1.4.11 , so your programme will start but doesn’t seem to recognize te launcher. Do you have an update on the way that would enable wireless-users the same satisfaction you have given to so many frustrated office employees?

Thanx,

Niels
