Based on the popular phrase “I don’t give a flying F-word,” the Fuck Volant helicopter actualizes the idiom by being a remote control helicopter that has a body shaped like the curse word. Though it sacrifices aerodynamics, the shock value of being able to pilot and surprise people with a floating profanity should be more than enough incentive to make consumers choose this helicopter over other RC vehicles.
The Fuck Volant helicopter is currently being sold on the French website Super Insolite, which specializes in strange and quirky gadgets. Funnily enough, the site suggests using the offensive flyer to get revenge on those who frequently annoy its user, believing it to be an empowering device for people who prefer not to swear outright. The helicopter itself retails for around $40 and runs on four AA batteries.
