As much fun as remote control planes are, they've always been difficult to control and prone to damage when they inevitably plummet into something less than soft. This latest innovation, developed with the Natural History Museum, solves both problems. A revolutionary, intuitive joystick makes control of the plane much simpler. It's motion sensitive, allowing the pilot to simply tilt the remote left or right to control direction, while a trigger adjusts power to the propellers for height. Ultra-lightweight materials are used for the plane's construction, which is certainly strong enough to withstand crashes and bumps through normal flight. However, it's still a delicate device and, despite the title's claims, could be damaged if not treated with respect.
