Default Avitron - Bionic RC Bird

I posted this in the ARF RTF section but I think that was the wrong place to put it.

The Avitron was designed by the same company that brought you the TIM Bird Ornithopter, by engineer Edwin Van Ruymbeke, son of the original TIM bird inventor. Couple the human fascination with flight with advanced micro electronic technology and bird-like characteristics and you get the utlimate RC flying bird experience. The Avitron is unlike any other radio controlled flying model you have ever seen. It does not use a traditional propeller to fly, but rather it flaps its wings up to 16 times per second to acheive flight and give you control over your very own RC flying bird. Weighing in at just 8.35g flying weight, the Avitron can go with you wherever you travel and deliver the thrill of flapping flight. Great for beginners and gurus alike! The RC Flying Bird is here!
