Another advantage for electrics:  If you're gonna turn a dead cat into a stunter, you don't want the fur to get soaked by oil.

The problem with electric is that once you get the smoke generator and sound system installed, the plane is too heavy.

I see a conflict with the BOM rule.  The artist furnished the covering but the taxidermist did the framework. VD~

I think he should fly this at the next P.E.T.A. convention.  I once read the book "101 Uses for a Dead Cat"  Guess there are 102 now.. LMAO...

I saw that clip on TV.  I think the cat is fake, but the 'copter is real.

    I'm not sure why you think it's fake. It looks no better or worse than the usual taxidermy victim.

    One wonders why anyone would think to do this, it's as bizarre as it comes.

This is worse than "cat juggling"! Something needs to be done! (g**gle "cat juggling", The Jerk, Steve Martin, to see the film clip of this disturbing act, discretion advised....)

Hope he's careful with that thing. With all those rotors spinning about, an accident might prove catastrophic.

I bet it always lands on its feet.  Probably the closest thing to a crash-proof model.

There can only ever be one flying Tiger Derek !


Im not sure if Im offended by this or not..... I have a few cats, certainly stuffing them - then stuffing batteries into them wasnt on my list of things to do.. However I can see something artistic about it.

Its no more shocking than anything Gunther von Hagens created.

There is something creepy about it : However something liberating.. about not grieving but celebrating the life.


Unfortunatley.... when I saw this from Brett I could only think of ONE THING : Im sure im not alone when I say this either..

Will the torment never end! It was bad enough during school years to be saddled with an old fashoned name like Orville. Most people were and are ignorant of the name of the first man to fly a heavier-than-air machine, all they know is pop-corn and now flying dead cats HB~>
Too late to change my name now besides the scars are badges of bravery to be worn proudly.
