Worth Reading?

NoYes

If the last video of the WowWee Dragonfly Robot got you salivating, how about another from the makers themselves? Taking off from a meeting table and then fluttering around a selection of their other robots, it’s hard to believe that this is going to be a commercially-available toy.

It turns out that credit for the original design must go to a high-school student – and now part of the WowWee team – Sean Frawley, who will in fact sell you the plans for his elastic-band powered Ornithopter kit for a mere twenty bucks.

I can’t wait to have a go of this myself!

    Chris,

    Thanks for the nod! The Flytech Dragonfly will be an immediate buy for me. Regarding Sean Frawley: and now he’s in college and is a consultant for WowWee! I can’t wait to see what he and other up and coming members of “generation R” (as in Robot), come up with in the years to come.

    Happy Holidays to all of you at Slashgear,
    Robert
