"Air Hogs" would be a good name for those air powered cars! Glass, if you like RC Helicopters, check out this page and especially this video. I have the Lama V3 (the same one in the video). It is fully controllable (unlike the Air Hogs) and is a lot of fun to fly. The anti-crash kit is a MUST! Probably not appropriate for small kids because it's big enough that a person could probably get hurt if they were hit by the blades.

rofl. I remember seein' those things on tv. Reminds me of when I was a kid and got all my kites stuck in trees. One time, I let all the string go out on one. The only problem, the 500 ft. of string wasn't tied off on the end. Never found that one. lol -------------------- Buy Low. Sell High.

Every so often, I still get the urge and build and fly a kite. A gentle breeze on a sunny relaxing day flying kites is one of the joys of living.

I am seeing all kinds of weird small stuff on the highways in CA. i am only talking about cars this time. The thing i would worry about when driving these miniature cars is getting hit by another full sized vehicle when in one. In Ca. many people drive a little crazy you need a lot of protection.

my dog would love that... i have a good friend that's been into serious remote control planes and copters since the 80's.. he runs a chopper with a 5 foot span on the rotor, the fuel is some nitromethane mixture... that thing is dangerous... we stay pretty far back till it's idling... -------------------- Don't envy the happiness of those who live in a fool's paradise.

I am seeing all kinds of weird small stuff on the highways in CA. me too... _________________________________________________ That's just normal stuff. The problem in that situation is if you are one of the cars stuck there and you have to use the restroom.

The guy was asking for an Obama sign for some reason. At least that's what was reported on TV. -------------------- Buy Low. Sell High.
