FlyTech Dragonfly
WowWee's flying insect soars, dive-bombs, hovers and glides using
authentic flapping-wing action, which makes it the first
commercially-available toy ornithopter. It's lightweight (about 1 oz.) yet
sturdy, and sports a 16-in. wingspan. The two-channel radio remote lets you
control wing speed and tail rotor speed and doubles as a charging base (a
20-min. recharge gives you about 6 min. of flying time). The kids will love
it if you can bear to let them have it for a while.
PRICE: $50
