Solar-Powered Toy Helicopter
- Made by: Inpro Solar
- Price: $32
This whimsical whirlybird comes from the German company Inpro Solar, and is sure to delight any budding young aviator. The solar panel on the rotor generates enough energy to turn the blade, and while the odds of this chunky chopper actually taking off are slim, it could very well twirl its way into the heart of your little flyboy or girl.
