Yeah, I know... it was just a really bad joke. The plane in the video that Sean linked to is made by Hangar 9 (Horizon Hobby) - a USA based manufacturer of RC aircraft.

btw... speaking of the Duckhawk - where are the videos of it flying? Didn't it come out in 2012? How many have been built since? How many can WP build a year? Anyone know?
