I once came up with a brilliant idea for a R/C modeling friend: what about a
100% accurate airframe, down to the seat, functional joystick and control
lines and engine throttle, and a radio-controlled pilot doll with a digital
camera in his head, so you can fly the airplane by watching a small TV
monitor and control the pilot's limbs to fly the model airplane?
My friend stared at me oddly.
He's such an unimaginative fellow.
