Features

Remote Control of Automated Balloon Setting machines that were designed for the Cowboy Mounted Shooting Sport.

The black powder blanks produce burning embers to pop the balloons.
  • A full system consists of 10 of the Balloon Setters, a Signal Light Tower, and a Remote Control. Each item is battery powered so there are no cords in the arena.
  • The remote control operation cannot be “spoofed” or tricked into resetting by an unauthorized transmitter as the communications protocol is custom.
  • The remote signals the Signal Light Tower to show Red or Green to let the next rider know it is set to enter the course.
    • The remote cannot “reset” the pods while the Signal Light Tower is set to Green, as the rider may be on the course.
  • Each pod can hold up to 206 balloons for continuous operation during large events.
  • A full battery charge can set all of the balloons of the largest belt.
    • Extra batteries are available to be able to swap in during a competition, likely while swapping the belt.
  • The balloons are preloaded, by the owner/operator of the system, into belts that can be changed out in a few minutes for additional stages.
