Bionic Bird: The Furtive Drone
"Grand Master Pycelle...send a Bionic Bird to Casterly Rock." He's not a real raven, but this biomimetic drone is built and engineered to look so much like one that you'll definitely be able to use him to deliver apple bobbing and popcorn-ball-sharing invitations to all the hot Daeneryses at your Halloween parties this year.
The Bionic Bird charges in just 12 minutes when perched atop his (precious & adorable!) portable egg. When ready for flight, you'll pilot him using your smartphone, indoors or outdoors, at speeds up to 12MPH and a range of 325'. Flight time reaches up to 8 minutes, and The Furtive Drone can pop about 12 in conspicuous squats on his egg for a recharge before the egg itself needs more juice.
You can get your biomimetic wingman for 33% off retail value for a limited time.

The Best RC Toys for Adults
The best RC toys for adults span well beyond remote control cars and drones. In the case of the giant RC Bald Eagle, a full 9-1/2-foot wingspan beyond remote control cars and drones. And, honestly, I'm kind of over drones...
Smartphone Controlled Paper Airplane
We've seen electric paper airplanes. And we've seen flights of fancy controlled by smartphones. But never before in the history of mankind's existence on the universe have we seen an electric paper airp

AirDog Auto-Follow Drone for GoPro
Looks like tech that autonomously follows its owner around could be the next trend in Stuff You Can't Believe Is Real. Well, maybe not entirely autonomously. Like the HEXO+ and Double the roaming robotic iPad

Taxidermy Animal Drones
When I first read about, but hadn't yet seen, Copter Company's taxidermy animal drones I though they just sounded kinda goofy. Then I got a look at the Orvillecopter here. A spread-eagle taxidermied quad-cat-ter flying...

Nixie Flying Wearable Camera
The Nixie may be a ways from reality--and your wrist--but its live demo debut at CES 2016 proves it's a lot more than a few mockup drawings and some dude's dream (or, in this case, a dude and a dudette). The wearable...
T8X Robotic Spider
I know. It's just a remote control spider, right? Fun for 5 minutes' worth of scaring Grandma, but otherwise unremarkable. And $499? Is that a joke?...
