There's no better way to deliver a message to your buddy then to stage a kamikaze attack into his apartment window. Don't worry, we've evolved a little since the old paper airplanes days. Nor do we need to pull out the old white glue and popsicle sticks to have a good time. Radio-controlled aircrafts are ready-to-fly right out of the box and strong enough to take a beating. These days, planes are made out of carbon fiber and PolyNylolene foam which let you take a few windows on your way back home. And here at Trendpimp, we don't believe in sharing.





















Best Helicopter - Draganflyer V Ti - $900
They say this is the worlds easiest to fly RC copter. The Draganflyer V utilizes seven electronic sensors and Thermal Intelligence to make outdoor flying a breeze. Built with self-correcting gyroscoprs, simply returning the controls to neutral will restore the helicopter to a hover within half a second. If the transmitter signal is lost or the battery needs charging, it will safely descend until it lands. And as a bonus, while we don't condone spying, the Draganflyer is built with a high-resolution video camera that transmits LIVE footage.


Best Plane - MegaTech A7 Tornado - $140
Roaring with it's propeller enclosed in its fuselage, the A7 won't lose it's ability to fly easily. Featuring true ducted fan-jet technology that combines jet-like performance for smooth and gentle landings. With its ultra low-drag stator-blade fan-jet design, the Megatech electric powered A7 Tornado silently reaches speeds of up to 25mph.


Best Indoor Flyer - Plantraco Carbon Butterfly - $239
Make the coffee table your runway and take this ultra-light flyer for a stroll in your living room. The Carbon Butterfly weighs about 3.6 grams and has the smallest radio-controlled machanism ever developed. A wingspan of 7 inches, a top speed of 2 mph, and a springy carbon fiber propeller that bounces off walls.
