One other thing struck me about this video. Both the flying and filming techniques are above average. What are the odds that both would be that good? I'm betting that this is a promotional video, done by a skilled sales rep and videographer. Not yer average joe out flying these for jollies. A real pro job on the LED wiring too. Bet it's not part of the basic model. In case anyone is still reading this. One other thing struck me about this video. Both the flying and filming techniques are above average.

So I'm taking the liberty of awarding your UKKMA to myself. Now you need to select a deluxe picture commemorating the UKKMA, like the pic that accompanies the BRDDA: http://tinyurl.com/ysugnc Wow! Three winners on one post in one day! My work is done! :lol: [off topic]

That's a tot's toy. Here's a <b>real</b> R/C airplane, the B-52. Although this video is 9 min. long, just the first 2 minutes are well worth a look, and none of that junky new wave music either, just the sound of 8 genuine turbine engines: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23KuEhUVEu8 Har!

IMHO its much better and 10X better than RAP, the 'Boom Boom' noise you hear from cars 3 blocks away and that screaming heavy metal shit usually found on solider videos from Iraq. Its all taste though... ;) #1 & 2. Yep More UFOS! * lol * Cheers #4 The first track is Techno is not that good and the second is not Techno but generally I like Techno, I picked that up from Jakarta.

Now we're going to start having a whole new rash of UFO reports from those believers who think that these things are "the real deal". BTW, I'll bet they don't allow these things to fly anywhere near the White House. Can't take a chance it might be used by terrorists, right? Might do a lot of damage, like scratch the paint on Cheney's limo. Same here, once I saw them all lighted up with bright-white LEDs (probably from $1 keychain fobbs).
