Radio-controlled gizmos are always fun, whether they are for driving, sailing or flying. When it comes to flying gizmos though, its pretty much all mini-copters and puny planes. The Flytech Dragonfly however, is a little bit different, no wait, it is a big bit different.

The Flytech Dragonfly is a cool radio controlled insect made by the guys that are responsible for Robosapien. As it is meant to be a Dragonfly, instead of having 1 big propeller or 2 static aeroplane wings it has a little tail rotator and 4 “insect” wings and flaps them just like a real dragonfly! The Dragonfly has the ability to take off from any smooth surface, soar, dive-bomb or hover and glide silently for soft landings. Although it can be used both outdoors and indoors, it is aimed more for using indoors so it is capable of maneuvering in really tight spaces. It also has a carbon-fiber structure so it will be able to withstand a bit of a beating, such as smashing it into walls or bouncing it off Dads head. Controlling the flight of the Dragonfly can take a little bit of getting used to so the remote gives you both Beginner and Advanced skill levels and a tail stabilizer is included for additional control if needed. The Flytech Dragonfly is totally different from all other flight gizmos and priced at £30 - £40 it is a little bargain.
