Title: remote control lawnmower (that can fly)
Post by: Admin on September 22, 2009, 11:05:20 AM
The only thing better than a remote controlled lawnmower is a remote controlled lawnmower that can fly.

Watch the grass, it's not shorter, so it doesn't mow anything at all.
I IS fake, it flighs, i don't deny that, but it doe's not mow.
It looks like it's made of wood or foam...
But a cool video, never the less.

Then why call it a lawn mower? ::)
I'll be impressed when someone gets it to mow lawn.

Did you look at the shape/features of it? If i had an rc cat that flys, would you expect it to eat/poop?

It's not realistic enough if it doesn't eat  and poo. ;D ;)
Good point though :)
But still it would be cool if it mowed lawn too.
