What is the diameter of the tau gun drones and the shield drones? I've been planning on trying to lift one of its base using two magnets and some fishing line, but to even try then I need to know the diameter of the drones. Thanks in advance!

I'd really like to see that when your done, anyways onto business, the diametre of the Tau Drone is a little over 21mm...

Hope this helps mate...

Going by what I know of physics here, you string will need to be about 3cm long at the most, and the base will need to be a pretty big magnet, if possible try and position them like this:

so that is roughly keeps it centered. Awesome idea, but sadly I am left doubtful.

^^ agreed

It's a really neat idea, the problem is that usually any of those magnet and fishing line toys have the magnet at the top.
