DRONE AND BOAT HACKS - NEED IDEAS - 02/14/20 09:17 PM
For a fun hackathon project a while back I outfitted one of my drones with a wireless weapon payload designed for drone war skyjack missions. Flying is fun, but flying off with someone else's drone is even more fun...
Most of my time is split on a couple of different lakes. One day after watching a couple of flat billed, jersey clad fishermen fight to fish the same spot on a relatively empty lake, I realized that some just might find it entertaining if they could use my drone hack to interact with fish finders and autonomous trolling motors…
For the drone hack a Raspberry Pi Zero W with a small wireless network adapter is ideal for keeping the aerial package lightweight. The primary drone feature sends a deauth attack signal that disconnects the target drone from Wi-Fi and reconnects it to the attacker’s flight controller. It’s simple and effective.
The fish finder and autonomous trolling motor attack payloads can be configured in an aerial package for long range stealth flight fun or in various handheld wardrive packages that can be concealed in your boat or outfitted to work from your dock or lakeside porch. This will allow dock owners to finally have a fun way to interact with someone thoughtlessly banging lures or their boat off your dock.
The features are currently limited so I'm reaching out to the tribe for suggestions. Currently the fish finder hack will disable wireless networked devices and GPS, download, erase or update waypoints, and in some cases allow you to send a special message to the device’s display.
I’m working on a few standard messages to send to display screens but wanted to ask the OT for suggestions for a few more. So far it will send the following messages:
The autonomous trolling motor package works similar to the drone skyjack package as it allows the attacker the ability to take control of the autopilot feature, plus it allows you to download, erase or update waypoints. It's fun to move someone's boat for them while they are on your dock retrieving a lure. Any thoughts on other features it needs?
BTW, I’m working on something similar that will allow messages to be sent to display screens in nearby vehicles. Since the spring spawn is just around the corner please send your suggestions ASAP so I can wrap up the fish finder/trolling motor project.
