Paper planes have been around for decades and although their main purpose probably wasn’t to annoy teachers, that’s exactly how many of us will remember them. If you spent most of your school years folding paper before launching it across the classroom, then we have a 21st century upgrade for you that we can guarantee is a hundred times more exciting than any school yard paper plane.
The PowerUp FPV allows you to experience paper planes in a whole new way – from the cockpit! This fantastic modular design which was built with the help from Drone experts Parrot, allows you to attach a first person view camera onto any paper plane, which sends a direct feed straight back to your smartphone.
This incredible flyer creates its own wi-fi hotspot, so you can connect and control it using your smartphone from up to 90 metres away. Included with the module and a selection of different paper plane templates is a Google Cardboard VR headset. Stick your phone in here and view the world from above as you fly across the park. Then you can control the direction of the plane by simply tilting your head (WOW!) or take your phone out the VR headset and use the app.
An autopilot stabilising function makes flying easier than ever before, and with a top speed of 20mph, we know you are going to have the best day of fun with this!
