We rubber banded styrofoam cups to our planes and tried to hit targets with water balloons. You would fly very smoothly to keep the ballon from bouncing out of the cup and do a roll to drop the balloon. No body was ever successful at actually hitting a target.

When we had r/c club cook outs one guy with bomb doors on his plane would fill it with candy and do a candy drop over the crowd.

We did a couple of events that were really fun. One was to take off from our field and fly the plane and drive to another flying field 20 miles away that had a pond and then do float planes. That's why I had a piper cub with removable pontoons. Another was to put lights all over the planes and have a night fly. That one always drew a big crowd on the roads around the flying field. It looked like the close encounters movie with everyone stopped on the side of the road to watch the UFOs go by.
