How to Use Sticky Bombs in GTA 5
You can attach C4 devices to almost any surface in GTA 5. Stick them to roads, buildings, newsstands, and bus stops, as well as traffic lights, signs, people, animals, and even vehicles. Sticky bombs can be attached to bridges, trains, and other cranes, but they won’t cause damage.
Strategically using bombs in GTA 5 or GTA Online is possible. You can set up a C4 ambush to stop police from following you. Once the cops arrive, spread the sticky bombs across an intersection and detonate them.
GTA Online allows you to be even more inventive. Play with your friends, and surprise them by placing sticky bombs on their cars. Then, watch them run. You can also put C4 on their planes and fly them into enemy squadrons. It’s endlessly fun.
How to Detonate RC Bandito GTA 5
You may be shocked at how small the RC Bandito vehicle is in GTA Online. Every player eventually learns the hard truth – this tiny RC-operated vehicle in GTA Online is not only ridiculous, but it is also highly resilient.
A regular-sized car, for example, will explode or become permanently disabled by an RPG hit. However, the RC Bandito can take a hit and get rid of the dust. However, the second hit can cause permanent damage, but it takes a while. The third hit will destroy this tiny vehicle.
The question isn’t how many C4s will be needed to defeat the RC Bandito. Sticky bombs and bullets are better ways to beat it. The RC Bandito can also be used to destroy your enemy’s drones. Attach two C4s to each side, drive the drone towards your enemy and trigger the explosion. This is an excellent idea because your enemies won’t have time to destroy it before they reach you.
Alternatively, RC Bandito may be equipped with proximity mines (customization). The Kinetic proximity mine option will launch nearby players, vehicles, NPCs, and other objects into the air. Although it doesn’t do enough damage to cause harm, this can create confusion. When the RC Bandito passes by a vehicle, the EMP proximity mine will disable it.
Unfortunately, the original plan for the RC Bandito in GTA 5 was to be built during development. GTA Online players can still enjoy this fantastic RC vehicle.
