If you’re looking to have some remote controlled fun, then might we suggest the £99.99 Panther ? This is touted to be an “amazing, madcap, fearlessly insane remote control buggy” that is extremely nimble, and it is pretty rare to see an RC buggy move along at 45kmh (yes, it is that fast) without losing any of its control in the hands of a true master. Equally at home in both outdoors or large indoor spaces, the Panther would perform best in stylish rally skids and homemade assault courses.

This isn’t the first time we have covered flying drone robots such as the Parrot Ar.Drone , or the voice-controlled one at MIT . This particular one is from UPenn, developed by the GRASP Lab. I have no idea if GRASP is supposed to stand for something, but it certainly is a good enough description of what this quad-copter does.

If you need to keep your phone safe around water you might give the DryCase a try.  It’ll give you full use of your phone, all the while keeping it completely safe.  Of course you’ll have limited use if you happen to own a flip phone of some kind, but at least you could still use Bluetooth if you so chose.  Plus for those of you that have a camera on your phone, it’ll let you still take pictures thanks to the clear case. These cases aren’t just waterproof, they all are left underwater overnight to make sure the seal is in great order before they’re sent off to the purchaser.  The case has a buoyant armband that will keep the case from just dropping to the bottom of the ocean.  It also has a stereo and microphone jack.  You can purchase the vacuum sealed case for $39.99 .
