Air Swimmers Review_$19.99_ Easy To Fly Swimming Airship

What happens if u poke it

[taoistflyer]

@MrBrownpride3 depends on what you poke it with.

[taoistflyer]

@MrBrownpride3 Mylar balloons are surprisingly strong, Mylar had a place in the moon landing and it's found in satellites and In military applications as well, it is another piece of technology that has helped save lives and helped our world grow.

It can however be punctured , like for example textured sheet rock ceilings can poke a hole in it if the balloon flies up and hits the ceiling to hard. The holes can be patched with tape unlike with traditional balloons.

[TheMokamola]

Hey what the heck? I have one now and there is something wrong. The pod CONSTANTLY stops responding and i have to manually move it to fix it! Its not stuck cause it would at least try to move but instead it does nothing. Is this normal?

[taoistflyer]

@TheMokamola if the tail works fine, and theirs nothing blocking the gears then I would consider taking that sucker back and exchange it,

[SuperMillerman10]

what size battery is in it??? im assuming 3.7 v becuase it is charged from the transmitter.

[taoistflyer]

@SuperMillerman10 I believe so.

[SuperMillerman10]

@taoistflyer k thanks because i do not want to wait 20min to fly again!!!!!!!!!!!! i plan on putting a 3.7 160 mah um 4-site battery on it. THANK YOU

[taoistflyer]

@SuperMillerman10 you should be able to, average flight time is about 15 or 20 minutes, you may be able to push up up to half an hour.

Hi TaoistFlyer... I love the idea of this Air Swimmer that you suggested, in response to my Comment, but I am bidding on a Silverlit Z-Century 4channel RC helicopter (my research suggests it is identical to the AirHogs Helix 360 - a brand owned by Silverlit). Maybe one of these Air Swimmers should be next... Mrs LM will 'do her nut' over this new hobby!  Nice video on a great channel.

[taoistflyer]

@TheLegumMagister The Z-century is the original version that was licensed by airhogs.

[TheMokamola]

That controller isn't the same one that comes with the toy... And there's no button that lets it keep moving automatically move forward

[nathanielmccaughtry]

no dont eat me ahhh

[AmericanAviator]

So, where do you store it once you're done playing around with it?

[taoistflyer]

@AmericanAviator He's sitting on my couch at the moment

[TheMokamola]

i also saw an employee flying it, and i have to say, this video tells 100% of the truth!

[TheMokamola]

I was in New York this week, and walked into a Toys R Us, which had six floors and a ferris wheel inside, and saw this for fifty dollars, plus 25 for the helium. HOW DID YOU GET IT FOR 20???

[taoistflyer]

@TheMokamola different places sell it for different prices, lightake.com sells it for 20. But it's I.R. controlled instead of R.C.

[TheMokamola]

@taoistflyer what in the heck is I.R.?

[blista28]

@TheMokamola Infra Red

[namezryan]

thats hella huge! i saw this around but i never read the description. wow i must get this:P

[taoistflyer]

@namezryan It's well worth it.

[blackhornet10]

That's so sick. I had rc helicopter videos on my channel blackhornet10. You think i should make more videos of my helicopter?

[Milks808]

great review :)

[ThatOneTechReviewer]

Did you get it free for review

[jayman127884]

What!?!? You got it for $20? I saw it online for $50!

[ez2curanut]

This would be cool at a basketball game, and have about 30 of these swimming around :)

[spacemouse1]

JAWS !!!!

[bladejunkee]

Did you buy yours from lightake.com?

[taoistflyer]

@bladejunkee They sent me this one.

[bladejunkee]

Respond to this video...  Is it the actual Discovery AirSwimmer? Or is it the AirRanger?

[taoistflyer]

@bladejunkee It's actually the air ranger

[ernestryles]

@bladejunkee discovery has no affiliation with airswimmers, they just sold the shark version

[bladejunkee]

@ernestryles Oh. Well fine, the shark is the one I got.

[Cyber000000]

Simply brilliant.  But imagine a hydrogen filled version with a "detonate" button?

[MRx36000]

@Cyber000000 Your mind is a dangerous fild...

[97nnamdi]

they should make a zepplen verson then i'll get it

[taoistflyer]

@97nnamdi you could easily buy a similar size Zeppelin envelope from a hobby shop and just put the air swimmers tail and pod on it.

[ez2curanut]

AAAAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAAHHAAHHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAAHAH. I laughed the whole time watching this... That is sooo coool. I thought you were in an aquarium... Gonna get me a few for presents. Thnaks for sharing.

[scotsoft29]

These are great looking fun flyers and you gave a good review of them.

I have bought many things from that site and never been dissappointed.

[bladejunkee]

how reliable is the website you suggested?

[taoistflyer]

@bladejunkee I haven't had any problems with them. They are in china though so shipping can take a little while longer but it's free shipping around the world and they have good prices.

[bladejunkee]

@bladejunkee Thank you, how long does the free shipping take?

[taoistflyer]

@bladejunkee about 2 weeks.

[Megalodon64]

I defenetly would love to own those airships. They should also make a Shamu one.

[taoistflyer]

@Megalodon64 I hope they start making all sorts of flying balloons, Shamu seams like a good choice and would probably sell great but I'm really looking forward to some of the other strange shapes that balloons can come in.

I want one that looks like an old Spanish galleon ship, but with a little steam punk in the design, a sort of mechanical looking tail/rudder and maybe even a mix between a swimmer and a blimp with fans. The sails would be tough but it would be beautiful in the air.

[Megalodon64]

Holy crap how did you make those house of cards?

[taoistflyer]

@Megalodon64 I actually recorded a video of me building it, I can post it if you think people would care to see it.

It isn't as hard as it looks, it took me about an hour to figure out how to build one.

[dittsboylogan]

Nice! I saw these in the mall the other day and realized just how cool they are! Great review. Thumbs up!

[taoistflyer]

@dittsboylogan I'm really loving them.

[MrkBO8]

So cool!

[lame3x]

omg i saw the rcmania first. he sux. he don't tell about the updown stuff, but you!you are my fav rc reveiw. thks

[BBBQ4]

wow, that is a great idea :O

i wonder when its gonna hit the markets here. in finland.

[sdrfgvrfgvsfravgdsvS]

how many helium it spends per year??

[taoistflyer]

@sdrfgvrfgvsfravgdsvS It can hold the helium for a few weeks if their are no leaks.

[XxWOLF117xX]

pretty cool i guess
