Live Streaming Paper Airplane

I had one of these paper-plane conversion kits a year or so back: it lasted exactly 15 seconds before breaking in the hands of my kids. The push-prop configuration simply doesn't provide enough power and stability for the kinds of planes that get made.

So I think this is a better investment, personally, for anyone wanting to get into small/light FPV flying:

While you can easily replace a paper-airplane with new parts/designs, etc. the Vapor will simply fly better.

Also, its available in every brick 'n mortar shop in my neighborhood, so its gotta be in stock somewhere.

This is one of the most entertaining kickstarter videos I've seen. I like the blend of specific technical information and just plain fun; I want a paper airplane drone that makes me feel like a lion riding a t-rex.

wifi range of "up to 300 feet" seems a bit limited at the quoted 20mph... all of the videos consist of the plane circling around the pilot.
