Kyosho Airplanes RC Racing Drone, Electric Blue

Kyosho’s exciting Drone Racer™ is a revolutionary hybrid that simplifies the most difficult and costly aspects of learning how to fly a conventional drone, which will have you flying with confidence and racing with your friends in a matter of minutes. Built to fly and handle like an RC car, the Drone Racer features technology that keeps the Drone Racer flying at a fixed altitude above the racing surface, and the throttle and wheel controls operate similarly to how they’d function in an RC car. The fact that the elevation is controlled for you is what makes the Drone Racer so fun. One of the many things that make the drone racer unique is the use of a pistol grip transmitter that’s virtually identical to the ones we’ve been using for decades in radio control cars and boats. So, the interface of the Drone Racer is something that we find familiar, and it’s made possible with the sonar sensors and the elevation control. By not having to manually control the elevation, just the throttle and steering channels remain. A special switch on the grip of the transmitter is what enables it to takeoff and hover, and there are two levels of flight that can be chosen. The Drone Racer™ draws on the looks of the Formula style race cars with its aerodynamic and futuristic bodies. This bPod model is specially designed by Kota Nezu, who studied Industrial Design at Chiba University in Japan. After joining the Toyota Motor Corp., Kota served as the leader of the “i-unit” concept development for the World Expo in Aichi. Kota also established znug design in 2005 and has worked on multiple concept plans and designs of industrial products. Good Design judge from 2014. There’s also a clear body set that allows you to custom-paint your drone however you’d like.
