The perfect gift for a high flying businessman or anyone who watches the sky with childlike wonder, the solar flier is a dynamic executive toy with an utter contempt for batteries. This 7.5” high and 12” diameter polished aluminum desk-topper features high tech solar cells built into the wings of an airplane – when the Sun or other bright light source shines on the wings, the solar cells create power to spin the plane’s propellers, allowing the solar flier to rotate around its base. It’s an excellent demonstration of solar power in action as you simply cover the solar panel to stop the propeller and expose the cells to Sun or lamp light to fire up the engines.
Batteries not included and not necessary.
