The Japanese made this for about $1400, could the might Flite Test build this with the same or better flight characteristics for $100?

Are Josh & Josh up to the challenge?

Let them know you want to see them try!

They could probably do it for less than $200. But the Japanese probably programmed their own board.

You could do it without a board if it was stable enough for forward flight, with the occasional prop hang, similar to the flying box really.

I've seen a guy with a flying box, that flies very very well. Yes, this shouldn't be too much different.
