Thanks to Youtuber RobscoRC for sharing his friend Robert’s first flight of an original Sean Kinkade (SK) Park Hawk with us. Sure, it’s no Smartbird but still pretty awesome for something from 1993.

It’s not the world’s fastest RC car, but 100mph isn’t anything to scoff at either. Off the shelf, the XO-1 by Traxxas goes from 0 to 60mph in 2.3 seconds and reaches 100mph in under 5 seconds.

The propeller doesn’t leave much room for smuggling Jedi, princesses, or droids, but Hasbro’s R/C Millenium Falcon is no piece of junk: it flies up to five minutes at a time. Thanks, Thorir!
Go green (and fast) with Horizon’s H-Cell 2.0, which converts RC electric cars, robots, and boats to run on hydrogen; refill using Hydrostik cartridges or via a Hydrofill refueling station.
The last thing R/C enthusiasts need is an arms race, but the Quanum Bomb System is sure to be a blast; it drops a nylon bomb that can be filled with powder for explosive effect.
An Aqua Modeler in Japan puts the ship back in spaceship with this remote-controlled, underwater capable Enterprise; they’ve also converted Battleship Yamato and the USS Voyager.
Yes, 900 Global’s Remote Control Bowling Ball is cheating, but it’s for a good cause: designed for disabled children, it uses an internal weight to adjust the movement of the ball.
With a downforce-creating carbon fiber chassis and all-wheel-drive, Nic Case’s RC car is now the world’s fastest at 161 mph; it uses an 11 hp motor, with power from a 12-cell battery pack.

With an underwater remote, all this RC Manta Ray needs is a shark fin to cause serious chaos at the pool; able to do barrel rolls, loops and Immelmanns, it sounds more F-16 than fish.
