Load Compact Flash cards with software to control pilotless (obviously) model aircraft, for aerobatic displays.
Sell for a pretty penny (whatever one of those is worth these days)
I get the feeling Peter never read the first iteration of this idea, anyway.

Aresti flashcards for aerobatics. Hmmm. |

Change of tack. Use them to run the programs for model aircraft. |

You know, when I was a kid, there was a car toy that had a little disk (think of the things that you put in an old 45 record to play it on a turntable with a 33 size spindle...) that you put in it to control it's path when it ran around on the floor. |
|
| |
Anyway, the shape of these disks were variable, and by changing them out you would get figure 8's, random looking patterns and rectangles and such. It was huge fun. |
|

I wish I had another one of those. This idea has promise. (+) |

LATER: You know I think I remember an airplane that did this too with a plastic disk... (madly searching the web now to try to repair an old memory.) |
