The Most Awesomest Toy Ever

Remote controlled airplanes for under $50 Canadian. 300 foot range and you get about 10-15 minutes of flying time off a charge (you recharge on the remote control - roughly equal time flying and charging).

The model I tried was largely made of pretty durable seeming foam and well protected props. It had a pretty low top speed, but that was good because no one in the park ended up feeling threatened by our presence. I have heard that when they fly out of remote control range the props keep spinning at the rate you had them going at - can result in a long chase.

The same company makes a tank that drives up walls and across ceilings and a higher end float plane that can land on water.

All my childhood dreams coming true!
