[zogxdyge] Straight line quadcopter

Shoot a gun shaped device at a target.  A toy quadcopter swoops in and travels in a straight line from the tip of muzzle to the target.

Not sure how the quadcopter automatically maintains its straight line path.  Inertial navigation?  Very precise geolocation, possibly indoors?

The goal is to safely capture the simple fun of a bullet which approximately travels in a straight line.  Low speed toys, e.g., Nerf, disc guns, quickly lose the linear projectile approximation.
