Silverlit Kazoo Electric Indoor ‘Kite’ Completely Misses The Point

Isn’t flying a kite about skillfully utilising the wind to keep a cloth contraption aloft? Sure, there are high tech indoor kites, but the Silverlit Kazoo completely breaks with convention by using an electric motor.

In fact, the only justification for calling this thing a “kite” and not an R/C aircraft is the fact that the remote control is tethered to the propeller engine with a cord. Still, if you want to simulate kite flying indoors without paying for fancy ultralight, windless versions—$US15 for the Kazoo is an attractive option. [Hobbytron via GadgetGrid via OhGizmo]
