Yeah, I know... it was just a really bad joke - The plane in that video is made by Hander 9 (Horizon Hobby) - a USA based RC hobby company.

Speaking of the Duckhawk... it seems like production began in 2012... why are the no videos of it in action? How many people actually own one? How many are WP able to build per year?

Anyone know?
