Radio Control X-UFO

Need a radio-controlled gadget to entertain you while you’re watching X-Files reruns?  I have just the thing for you.  The Radio Control X-UFO should solve all your flying saucer needs unless you like to play for more than five minutes.

I’ll admit this is a pretty innovative piece of thing, but you only have five minutes to enjoy the three-dimensional gadget.  Using four electric motors, two propellers and an electronic gyroscope, the makers of the X-UFO were unable to give us more flying time without a 25-minute battery boost.

The X-UFO is made of carbon fiber & EPP foam & can be flown indoors our out, for five minutes.  You also get red & blue flashing LED lights, four-channel radio control and a range of up to 320 feet. 

So, this is what I’ve got.  A light-weight red & blue LED light flashing radio-control flying saucer that will provide me up to five minutes of fun and lead me to a 25-minute battery recharge until I can play again.  Hmmm.  I think I’m going to have to pass.  Although it’s pretty handsome.  Cost, $130.
