DUDE, thanks for posting that! I got the same thing for my birthday a couple weeks back!

Sadly, my house just isn't big enough to play with it... looks like it really flies pretty well... difficult to control?

Wow! Very cool.

Surprisingly controllable. It really goes where you want it. The key is neutral buoyancy. You use clay for ballast.

That's really cool:seasix:

How does the pitch control work? By shifting ballast fore and aft of the CG?

Exactly. It's on a track. Damn clever.

Just spent an hour putting one of those together. Got it all together and the remote does not work. It is for my grand nephew. He and his father will have some bonding time seeing what the hell is wrong!

So you got one!
I saw some on sale at the mall but forgot to go back and pick it up.
I can see you're having a blast with it.

My nephew has one of those. It's gets annoying after a while.
