Flite Test | Glow Kite - Flying Cube 

2:14 That kid is like "I want to burn this place to the ground, and everyone in it".

That kid looked SUPER annoyed

2:14 That kid is SO excited!

Believe in the cube, and the cube will believe in you.

The motor on those is insane. Achieves 15-20 minutes of flight and has a 4:1 power ratio? Good lord!

Wanted to see the lights w/ night flight :(

Nice father and son project. 5 years is a very long time. Kites + RC is all thumbs up, in my books (y)

Very cool, i know alot of kids would love to get their hands on these, easy to fly, big and bright. Awesome idea guys!

Great video guys. Thanks for sharing this with us. Those flying boxes are very interesting and I am impressed with their outdoor ability. Indoors those things would rule.

Really like the design. Looks like a fun time.

That is the coolest thing I've seen!! Good job both of ya!

Where to get a motor and fan?

What's with all the thumbs down? Sure they might be boring as hell, but it's the experience and memories that kid is getting building these things with his dad that will live on long after his dad passes. Maybe that kid might even pay it forward with his own some day, instead of sitting in front of video games. A little more positive spirit people!

I love that Anthony's "Slash Hat". I believe it was taken from Slash, the GnR lead guitar. And the Flite Test logo on it is just perfect.

Very cool, just needs some el wire hanging from the bottom to be a flying box jellyfish

Very cool! Best of luck hope to see more of these!

I remember watching an episode back in 2012 of a prototype flying cube made from you guys, it flew for a while...

Ooo, I wanted to see the spinny lights at night! I hope that shows up in the eventual Flite Fest video!

Awesome build

I seriously need to see night footage of this.

That's awesome! I like it very much that they refined & refined & refined the concept to what it now is :) Compliment to Kelly & Antohny (hope I got the names right :$) ! :) And thanks for sharing this FT :) Cheers!

That is just silliness, and as I always say the sillier the better. It would be fun to see if you could get them to fly in 90 degree angles... great project.

Kid looked thrilled to be there.

looks like it was dads project and he included his son somewhat.

Peter, you know what to do next!

Flite Test, I have one question. If I wanted to make my own FPV quad, would you recommend a kit? Or a bunch of diffrent branded parts?

Does that kid even want to be there???

Josh Really Nice Video on the Box Kites ! Thanks Dave B.

Chad just staying behind the scenes these days? I always liked his vids.

Those are *amazing!*

Hello guys, please help me, I got my bixler 2 rc plane and with a HK-T6A 6ch transmitter with a trainer port (in detail ''a cable that you can insert from the transmitter to the computer via usb'') so it says that It does not install the drivers and that it failed. Can this transmitter be used on simulators? that is all I wonder if this transmitter can be used on simulators. I've tried to calibrate but it is blank, my computer does not recognize my transmitter. Thanks.

very good video hey FLITE TEST i can not find that camera and transmitter that you all used on your plane the one in a 1/2 box that you can take off of one plane and put on a another plane ty

Can you guys please do a review of the Hobbyking bushmaster? I want to know if it would be good for a beginner.

These fly super cool!!

Josh Finn could take these to a whole new level

Wow! That videography - 2:29

Very Cool! Thoroughly enjoyed this video!

Very cool!

Slash Kid did a great job. He needs to smile.

wow i just watched the ep with the flying box chad made. awesome

Somebody is going to steal the idea now.

Can you try to make a small scale version of the u2 plane or the sr-71 plane(blackbird)

That was cool very innovative

so how many cells is the 500mah it uses? Just curious

How is the torque from the prop balanced?

very cool....make more!

So cool, I want one.

great show seeing thing you thought that could not fly ,that some one made fly.Thinking out side the box,or in this case the cube

That kid looks so excited to fly a box...

Shy but cool kid, don't let this jokers take you down Robert! Love the hat and the googles by the way! :)

yall should have a kite festival.. millions love to flt exotic kites and balloons.. thats 3 festivals a year right there.. or 6.. 2 each spring and fall, rc, planes, kites, balloons

Those boxes look so freaking stupid in the air. I love it.

Someone is going to make millions! Nice idea.

could u review the dromida kodo? the nano quad?

Interesting flying machines! Hope he gets the backing, has he thought about trying Kickstarter? Might be a project other people would be interested in.

Very cool. How much are you looking for dollar wise ?

Great SteamPunk googles and hat!!...What was the name of the material used.... Apteryx??? looks like one has reinforcing threads???...Great flying...very interesting....Thanks..Laurie

nice job

Could you please do a review on the nitro planes/airfield 90mm/64mm sonic piercer 6ch and 4ch rc planes

Awesome! Imagine a passenger version of this :)

Pretty cool... I'd like to build one.

Build a plane that can fly forwards and backwards. So 2 motors, one in each end, and 2 radiosystems.

I heard that you might be doing an episode at my school, Embry-Riddle, this year? There's a bunch of race quads and a 2x scale punjet that has unlimited vertical...

I think I recall Chad's original premise was to keep everything entirely inside the box. These looked like the motor, prop and at least part of the tail fins were sticking outside the box. Nice design and execution but not quite what Chad was originally aiming for.

Ya know he is just a kid I was not all bubbly and happy bouncing off the walls as a kid I wore a weird baseball hat , had weird shoes and I was just being me . Im sure he is just a kid being a kid. Though it may not look it that kid probably designed most of the project. Way to go kid and dad the memories the 2 made on that project will probably last a lifetime you never know a kid i grew up with was a uber odd ball geek kid today he designs wierd airplanes for nasa and other companies all concept planes as he calls it top secret stuff all from a kid who did not fit in .

a beautiful kite plane. would like to watch it is flying in the nighttime. must be ausome..

I know it took 5 years to get to this amazing achievement...yet still, now I keep visualizing a radio-controlled, free-flying CHINESE DRAGON KITE. Or maybe even a glowing jellyfish, with dangling tentacles. Still, I'd love to fly one of these little boxes...and can't you just imagine a bunch of these whizzing around Burning Man at night?

This kite was very very beautiful hand some and awesome

Can you guys do another speed challenge please. Loved the one with Josh and david

dont you wanna punch ''slash'' in the face repeatedly !

Work with Prism Kites, they have a kite that is almost exactly like that plane.

Soon to be on sale on Ikea stores.

i hope there's a way of including a cheap controller with these when they're released. i can see these making good budget aircrafts when they're released but from a consumer perspective adding a controller that's more than £100 (approximately more than $156) to the package seems a little extreme.

How do you buy these I want one

Flight test - Could you build a drone built to specifically put on a scary costume on it as a prank. There are videos of this but they are not that great. I think you guys could take it to the next level.

I"ve built kites for over 10 years prior to coming over to RC. These would be easy and there are actually plans available for kites just like these planes online. A modified Prism Triad would be cool too.

U guys r too clever for words! Well done! U know i think new teachings should include " thinking outside the square !" Because thats what i did when creating Steampunk items , u had to! all the time! Imagination is infinite ! Well done! Look forward to any of yr new projects!👍👍👍👍👍

If this is meant to be a promo video. I do have one small suggestion which I feel is important. You may not but I do. There needed to be video either on site or video updloaded from earlier flights of some night flying. I see the lanterns at all sorts of festivals and parties and I can only imagine one of these flying around at night with LEDs would be amazing.

I can remember a good few years back that a company tried to push RC kites but it never took off,from memory they never flew this good though. I'm not 100% sure on this bit though but i keep seeing HH when i think of the RC kite,maybe HH brought them out or at least sold them,again this was a good few years back and they didn't fly this good. Just thought i'd put that out there.

would look cool with leds in the dark.

dang that edf was fast when they first put those things in the air (2:29 for those that missed it)

I would love to buy one.

Hey Flight Test I got an idea stick motor on a kite! I wonder if that would fly?

awesome

This is very cool! Where do I buy one?

how much would you sell 1 offs for

Prink a cardboard box design on it and fly them around your local post office.

I'll take a neon green one please!

and why in this ad, was the kite not glowing in the dark?

Serious question: How do you not lose orientation if it all looks the same from 5 of the 6 sides?

Borg kites.

I see you guys didn't include the video from the first launch lol. Saw myself several times in the video I'm the guy in the red TWA shirt next to Zebra plane guy.

the kid's so pissed that his dad brought a bright pink cute to be on the world wide web.. hahahahaha

0:48 old kc hobby shirt lol me so happy

can we get some night flying footage of these?

Cool!

Scott Manley needs to see this.

You guys should make a mini FT 3D that would be cool i would love have that so i can fly it in my small yard because i already have the FT 3D

what i would like to see, is a tricopter with a tilt on each arm. SUPER YAW POWER :D

These are neat, but going back to Chad's design, why not use a flight controller to stabilize it?
