Electric Paper Plane Launcher
I think my first thoughts were a bit harsh 🙂 For fun it’s not actually that bad of an idea. Maybe the creator could put a longer launch pad to line up a ton of planes to launch at once. [Read more…]

DIY Airplane
This aircraft is a DIY kit which you build your self. It is named Velocity and is classified as an “experimental aircraft”. To get more details on exactly what that means I advise checking out the velocity site linked below as it relates to FAA regulations. The Velocity can carry 70 gallons of fuel, carry 4 people (depending on weight and fuel load) as well as luggage. If you are light weight passengers then you could stay aloft for 5+ hours with a range of close to 1000 nm.
The Velocity features gull-wing doors and comes in a full assembly kit which can be built in a standard 2 car garage. Velocity say it takes around 1200 hours to completely build although you can opt for their own building service which can see it built in about 800 hours.
The cost of the cheapest Velocity is $31,950 which isn’t a bad price at all to get your hands on a nice project.

Top Gun RC Microfighter
This little plane is remote controlled and built like a fighter plane out of Top Gun. Just seeing the name Top Gun is enough to bring back the cheesy lines from the movie. Anyway, this RC micro fighter can do loops and other aerobatics. It is powered by 2 engines (props) which provide it enough thrust to easily fly around. Landings and take off’s can be performed also. The remote control section is a dual channel allowing for up/down and left/right as well as a throttle control.
A lithium-polymer battery can keep the micro fighter in the air for 10 minutes on a 30 minute charge which isn’t too bad.
To see a video of the Top Gun RC plane in action follow the jump.
