Silverlit R/C Stingray

Silverlit R/C Stingray

The Silverlit toy manufacture is continuing to release fun and weird radio-controlled toys at an amazing pace. Recently we have seen the Aeronaut, the iBird and the iFairy – and now, a stingray.

The flying features are similar to most flying indoor RC machines which means a 10-15 minute charge gives you 20-25 flying time (charge directly from the remote).

Here’s a video clip of the R/C stingray in action:

The Stingray also comes with a free IR booster, which in the past had to be purchased separately. This means the Stingray can be controlled over greater distances with an increased infra-red range.

It is made from EPP (expanded polypropylene) which is a durable yet lightweight material and comes in 3 frequencies which means you can have 3 flying at the same time.

The R/C Stingray is available from Red5 for £25 (about $49 USD).

  3. Flying Stingray is Airborne R/C Weirdness « Gears For Fears - August 11, 2009

    [...] Although it still can’t beat the flying schlong that interrupted Gary Kasparov’s speech, Silverlit’s R/C Stingray is one bizarre aircraft. The Stingray’s airframe is shaped like a single wing with a central propeller in the middle. Because of its unique shape, its flight performance is halfway between a plane and a helicopter. It flies slowly making it ideal for indoor aerial acrobatics such as moving in a spiral. The Stingray’s EPP (expanded polypropelene) frame means that it’ll survive several crashes. This is the most important feature since you’ll never know when some dour guy will come swatting the aircrat in mid air. [RED5 via GeekAlerts] [...]
