Have you ever wanted to build airplanes that you can fly using your phone? This set lets you do just that! Designed by Nighthawk Gliders, the Tornado Updraft 12 is a balsa wood plane that is compatible with POWERUP 4.0. The POWERUP module lets you control the plane via Bluetooth up to 230 feet from where you’re standing. This set also comes with 4 sheets of paper and folding instructions to build the Invader, a paper airplane that can be flown with POWERUP 4.0 just like the Tornado Updraft 12. Flights last 10 minutes on a charge and the app provides you with real time telemetry. ~Alex
