A bald eagle would make a pretty impressive pet. Thugs, thieves, salesmen and other low-lifes wouldn’t dare go near your home if the threat of a swooping, vengeful bird of prey was ever-present. On the other hand, you probably wouldn’t dare go near your home if a bald eagle had claimed it as its patch. What you need to protect your home from bad guys and real bald eagles is, of course, a 9 1/2 Foot Remote Controlled Bald Eagle.
Powered by a gimble engine and propeller, this thing actually flies. Actually, no, it doesn’t just fly; it swoops, soars, loops and hovers. Its nylon / polyester wings span 9 1/2 feet, which is twice as long as two short humans. For a remote controlled bird, that’s long. And to a verminous seagull or unwanted visitor at your home…that’s scary.
The supplied transmitter allows you to control the eagle up to 100 feet away, and the eagle’s rechargeable battery gives you 8 minutes of flight time. That’s probably ample time for anyone to be terrorised by an eagle, but don’t fret if it’s not enough for you: it fully recharges in just 20 minutes.
