Based on a peregrine falcon, this ingenious remote control toy is a true ornithopter - which means its flight relies on the thrust and lift generated purely by flapping its wings, just like a real bird - something that's very difficult to replicate. In fact the R/C Falcon's flight is so realistic that prototypes of the toy have been attacked by real birds of prey during testing. And it works brilliantly! The controls are easy to master. Direction and height can be managed acceptably with very little practice. When the power is reduced, it naturally swoops and glides realistically, but is persuaded to flap higher again with slight pressure on the remote. Made from ultra-light materials, it's suitable for use indoors or out, with a range of up to 40metres and has a flight time of about ten minutes after being charged directly from the handset. During flight the eyes and head are illuminated.
