Title: Radio controlled Kites
Post by: Nordsee on May 06, 2010, 01:28:08 pm

 A friend of ours has just returned from NZ and stayed over in Singapure. Down by the Harbour one evening he saw lights in the sky, moving quickly. He investigated and found a group flying Radio Controlled Kites. All Illuminated and some as big as 6 foot span. Like to see more? www.goflykite.com.sg It is all there! Anyone going to Import them to Europe?

Found them on Stanegate flyers - from £180 to £380 less TX and RX. Think I'll give that one a miss, tho it might be worth looking on Fleabay.

I got a reply from my enquiry to Singapur the same day. They gave me Stangate as well. I don't know why they call them kites, as they are RC Fun Flyers!
