Silverlit R/C Chopper with Spy Satellite & Lasers

The Silverlit company is continuing to come up with fun new ideas for their steadily growing stream of radio-controlled toys. The latest example is the Planet Protector.

This futuristic helicopter features a brave pilot who is “defending the Earth against invaders by attacking their spy satellite station with his infra-red laser beam”.

You can fly the Planet Protector on a mission to defeat the satellite station and when you score a direct hit it’ll explode in a blast of light and noise! But the fun’s not over there, as it can be re-assembled for another round of battle!

Here’s a video demonstration of the Planet Protecto in action:

Featuring Silverlit’s famous super-wide infrared control system and fast charging through the transmitter unit, together with sturdy construction that means it can handle bumpy landings or crashes and get right back into the air again afterwards, the Planet Protector is an awesome ground-attack challenge! Auto-stability and precision controls mean it’s easy to learn to fly too.

The Silverlit Planet Protecto will soon be available from the Thumbs Up UK website. The suggested retail price has been set to £34.99 (about $52 USD).
