    These are for sale at www.goflykite.com  You'll need to win the lottery before ordering.

    VERY NICE!!! I love in the second video they stack them together to make bi/tri/quad/hexa-planes! And the lasers, the lighted runways, the synchronized flying, all very cool 8)
    Then I go to the website and see their top model sells for $500SGD which converts to $403 US dollars! OUCH! A lot of money for what is essentially Chris' IFO with lights. Oh well, it was very entertaining to watch. Thanks Tiger :)

    Those are cool, but I don't understand the price.  They look super simple almost like large "Vapor" planes.

    I agree!  The price there is totally nuts.  I'm wondering if that's really correct.  Doesn't really matter, because like you said, it's just an IFO with lights.  I've got the high power lights so let's do it.  :)    We will still need to get those green lasers.  Gotta have those!

    OK, I have seen Chris fly one of those, orange I think, at the old indoor-fly-and-drives and at Redwood.  Thanks.

    Don't forget to have some lasers pointing upwards to signal piloted aircraft that you are in the area.  :D
