    [Funny] Things you don't expect to see flying aroung

    Apparently, if you live in Philadelphia, you might be able to get your dry cleaning delivered by a remote controlled model aircraft:

    That looks kind of klunky though, it would be way cooler if they would use this:


    You really need to turn down the volume of your speakers before you watch this!!!!

        Having been an R/C Aircraft hobbyist for the last 15 years, I am no longer surprised at what can be made to fly, if not by wings than by raw thrust and a microcontroller board with a few sensors.

        A list of stuff that I have seen or built to fly without help of a microcontroller:

        Flying Lawnmowers
        Flying Doghouses
        Flying Socks
        Flying Cars
        Flying Trucks
        Flying Gocarts
        Flying Hydro Boats
        Flying Hovercraft
        Flying Tubes
        Flying Cubes
        Flying Disks
        Flying Pizza Boxes
        Flying Fish
        Flying Witches (with broomstick)
        Flying Cats
        Flying Superheros

        I'm sure there are more.

          Raw thrust is preferred!! Things that go boom, and things that Illuminate everything with in a 2 mile radious.... Parachute flares with 35000 candle power @ 1500 feet altitude ...................
