This is the new alien jump jet from
http://www.snelflight.co.uk
It is a 4 channel micro electric indoor VTOL
It has 3 micro gyros that keep it as steady as a rock in the air, ground effect isn’t a problem so you can hover inches off the ground. It’s auto stabilization is amazing push on it and it pushes back to stabilize itself, it’s very cool. When you order it you can select to have either a mode 1 or mode 2 transmitter. Mode 1 has throttle on the right stick, mode 2 has throttle on the left stick.

It comes with the aircraft, replacment blades, a transmitter and a wall socket charger with an adapter for most major countries.
At the moment it is only available through snelflight.
They helped develop the aircraft and their customer support is amazing they are the best place to get one. They ship very quickly, usually in less then a week. But delivery times will vary depending on the postal service in your country.

It is controlled via IR, but an RF upgrade will be coming out later this year,
The IR signal is very powerful and it works well in the home, but if you want to fly it out doors or in large open areas you will want to upgrade it to RF.
This is the main alien air forum wear you can ask questions and get answers about the alien jump jet and other alien air products coming soon.

This aircraft is a blast to fly and it looks really cool, I think it represents a new wave in electric consumer rc aircraft.

Bolivian TV channel PAT has been left looking a bit daft after broadcasting extraordinary images of the last moments of Air France flight 447, lost over the Atlantic on 1 June:

According to the report, the snaps were retrieved from a recovered Casio Z750, which was subsequently traced via the serial number to its owner – “Paulo G. Muller, an actor from a well-known children’s theatre on the outskirts of Porto Alegre”.

In fact, the camera can be traced to ABC Studios and sharp-eyed readers will notice that the photographs feature well-known actress Evangeline Lilly, aka Kate Austen from TV series Lost.

PAT has fallen hook, line and sinker for a hoax email, and to add to its embarrassment, has failed to appreciate that while the flight 447 disaster occurred at night, the images represent the daytime fictional break-up of Oceanic Flight 815

Update: According to a Digg commenter, the newscaster explains that the camera was destroyed, but the memory card was somehow recovered.
