Meet FlyTech RC Dragonfly
Makers of Robosapien have left the confines of land and taken to the air with their latest robotic endeavour, and it seems they have triumphed yet again - making the first commercially flying ornithopter. For those that didn't know an ornithopter is an aircraft that flies by wing-flapping. Many examples already exist in nature such as birds, bats, and insects.
The Flytech Dragonfly has a tail rotor and a 16-inch wingspan, which is needed, as unlike most other RC fliers, there is no propeller, just sheer flapping gusto which powers the dragonfly onwards and upwards, generating wing speeds of up to 18mph.
The Dragonfly's extremely light carbon fibre body aids the smooth, easy flight of this impressively simple-to-fly robotic toy and prevents any damage coming to your TV when you inevitably crash into it. Likewise, the body and wings are surprisingly durable, meaning if you happen to take a kamikaze nose-dive all should be well with your beloved Dragonfly.

Quick to Charge
A short 20-minute charge on its magnetic pouch is enough to deliver a meaty 15-minute flying period. And you can send your Dragonfly zooming off into the distance of approximately 150 ft before it goes out of range of your remote control pad, which incidentally is the spitting image of an Xbox controller.
Your Dragonfly flutters, soars, dive-bombs and glides, revolutionising indoor flight as it takes off and lands on flat surfaces. The remote control even comes with two different settings, beginner and expert, so you can select what suits your skill level.
So is it any different from the many other RC fliers out there? A resounding yes. Flytech's Dragonfly is remarkably easy to get off the ground as well as keep in the air - a breath of fresh air for this busy market - making it lots and lots of fun. It even sounds like a real Dragonfly! We love it, and we're not the only ones. Order yours now!

Customer reviews
"I've been lucky enough to test fly one of these at the NEC Toy fair. It's quite hard to get the hang of flying it at first and lucky for me it's virtually indestructible. Once you get the hang of the controls it's amazing how easy it is to fly! - loads of fun."
Mr Holden, Basingstoke
"This thing is a ton of fun, horribly difficult to fly (it seems that the younger you are, the easier it is!). Lots of fun, lots of pics and a fan site forum... www.mydragonfly.info"
Doug Setzer, Brierley Hill
"Great product, hours of fun, quite different from normal RC planes. Access to charging cabe a bit fiddly."
John Perks, Chislehurst
"They are lots of fun! Make sure you have some decent room inside the house to fly it in. You can fly it outside too, but if its too windy, it wont stand a chance."
SecretLevel,
"I know i have one they are so good but put it in expert mode its easyer to fly im 12 and very good at it"

"This radio controlled robot can be in doors or out. Best robotic on gizoo so far I think. But it looks hard to set off."
Mr Shaun Heavens, Swindon
