1:1 scale radio-controlled HUMMER H3: is this the best RC ever?

I have seemed some nice RC cars in my time like Tamiya Blackfoot, which is a 1:10 scale Ford F-150 monster truck. Well if you thought that was awesome, you are sadly mistaken as there is a bigger monster in town.

Some guy has built a radio-controlled HUMMER H3, which has a 1:1 scale. The RC car was designed and built by Dr. James Brighton from Cranfield University. The HUMMER H3 is able to climb a 407mm vertical wall and can even traverse a 40% side slope.

iBird: Realistic R/C Bird

Do your kids keep saying how cool it would be to have a real bird in the home well now they can with this Silverlit i-Bird that looks and flies like a real bird but without the mess.

There has been a number of flying gadgets out there and not many of them if any have come to anything but Silverlit has perfected mini-ornithopter technology and the result is the i-Bird which is possibly the smallest RC flapping-wing model in existence.

Packed with state of the art technology, it’s one of the latest generation of RC flyers that provides an unparalleled level of control and stability both indoors and out. Simple and fun to fly, the i-Bird is ready to soar straight out of the box and ultra-tough to survive the roughest landings.
