Drone-flying, hoverboard Barbie is here

[LuvMyTJ]

Mattel revealed at the 2016 International Toy Fair in New York the latest incarnation of Barbie -- clad in pink, yes, but also riding a hoverboard that’s actually a real drone. The new doll is called Barbie Star Light Adventure RC Hoverboard. What do you think about this new Barbie?

Ken at DJI?

Is it impolite to ask what the woman weighs? Does she need to register?

 

[flpholt]

didn't think of that bet you will have to register wow that will go good for public .bet Barbie can fly in a no fly zone

They actually make a "Dad's body" Ken now. His belly might crowd the steering wheel.

Does it have any autonomous flight capability? If it doesn't, its not a drone, just a quad! lol Barbie marketing doesn't seem too tech-smart!

These days any 3 or more prop driven RC aircraft are considered drones. Trying to get people to not say drone will be up there with calling all soda beverages 'coke' and all tissues 'kleenex'.
