R/C Bomp Dropping Blimp

August 18th, 2007 by Al in Remote Control Toys

Blimp Bomber
We’ve had a few cool R/C toys recently and they just keep getting better and better, the latest is the Bomb Dropping R/C Airship.

The radio controlled Blimp Bomber is an oversized bomb-dropping RC blimp with an indoor flying range of 100 feet and 3-channel micro motor jet thrusters for complete control over speed and direction. The Mylar envelope, a refillable helium balloon, provides superior flying action as its almost weightless bulk glides around obstacles. Press a button on the controller, and the blimp releases lightweight bombs. Aim for a target that you place on the ground.

The Blimp Bomber can be yours for $79.95. Argh! I’ve just seen that we’ve posted about this before when I was on holiday. Well, it is still cool so a second mention won’t do any harm :)

Discovery Radio Control Freestyle GyroTruck

August 13th, 2007 by Edwin in Childrens Gadgets, Electronic Gadgets, Remote Control Toys, Toys

gyrotruck.jpgI believe the Discovery Radio Control Freestyle GyroTruck will not only appeal to kids but adults as well. Chances are dad and son will tussle over the remote control, especially when this remote controlled device can speed along the pavement rather fast while performing hair-raising stunts without missing a beat. If you noticed, the gyro wheels are extremely large, multiplying the torque for an added speed boost while keeping a stable profile no matter what the terrain is. Powerful twin motors drive the GyroTruck ever onward, and it can even run at a 45-degree angle on tires and pegs, upside down, or right side up. At $39.95 a pop, this is will definitely impress more than just the neighborhood kids.

Wii Hero Pack let’s users slay the dragons

August 7th, 2007 by James in Audio/Video Gadgets, Childrens Gadgets, Conceptual Gadgets, Electronic Gadgets, Gaming Gadgets, Remote Control Toys

Hero Pack 1

Wii accessories are getting as common as the games people play. Some are even kicking up the imagination quotient a notch to give players not only a physical experience – such as for sports video games – but also a fantasy experience. Witness the Wii Hero Pack by Camy International.

Though some will enjoy the inevitable Zelda gaming fantasies, why stop there? Imagine pulling the sword of Gryffindor from the sorting hat in the first Harry Potter video game, or wielding the sword and shield a digital Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe? Any video game that has a sword and shield and runs on Wii will enjoy the added dimension of hacking and slashing with hilt and blade, even if it’s much shorter and made of foam.

Blimp Bomber causes aerial havoc

July 19th, 2007 by Edwin in Electronic Gadgets, Remote Control Toys, Toys

blimp-bomber.jpgNow this Blimp Bomber looks so fun that I suspect even dads will sneak it away from Little Johnny’s room when the latter is not looking to have a fun time dropping bombs all over his wife’s flour mix in the kitchen. Sure, he might end up without dinner but the fun involved sure looks worth it! This remote controlled Blimp Bomber has a flying range of 100 feet and a couple of 3-channel micro motor jet thrusters that give you complete control over its speed and direction. When hovering above your intended target, just press a button to let fly its payload of lightweight plastic bombs. The Blimp Bomber can be yours today for $69.95.

The Blade Runner 2 mini RC heli: more control!

July 17th, 2007 by Andi in Remote Control Toys, Toys, Vehicle Gadgets

BladeRunner 2Today’s RC helicopters come in two categories:
1. Those which are too hard to fly for most people because they’re just like the real thing.
2. Others which offer limited controls, but are easier to master.

The Blade Runner series of helicopters counters this by offering a dual-rotor design (no torque, no tail rotor needed) with an extra catch. The tail rotor is mounted horizontally rather than vertically. What this means is that you can tilt the helicopter’s nose up and down, thus making it move forward and backward.

Until the Blade Runner Recon is launched, the manufacturer offers us the Blade Runner 2.
