Video Part 2 shows how the model can be used to take out adults and small children? You'd think they would edit those bits out.
Seems to be something like Kickstarter requiring backers.
Lots more info on RC Groups

That looks like a really good idea, not only breaking the wings down (which is normal these days) but actually breaking the fuselage in half too.

I like it... I think the aero stuff needs sorting out, I know it was windy but didn't look to fly very nicely, but the concept is good.

Haha, loved the "move move baby" from part II lol, shouldn't have been standing there.

Well I hope it turns out to be good because I've ordered one at the half price backer deal.
Since I'm expecting to be emigrating to NZ this year and plan to spend the first year touring around in our caravan , I thought I might get away with sneaking this past the boss ;)

  I like the way he carefully times himself to assemble the model......complete with obvious editing of the footage.....lol.
