About Us

Sean Kinkade started RC ornithopter development for the hobby market as a life long passion starting early in life. Throughout the 1980's and 1990's gradual progress was made with various prototype models.

Breakthrough success finally came in 1998 with the nitro powered VT-series of models which led to the 1999 release of the world's first production RC ornithopter called the SkyBird. The trend in RC around the time of the SkyBird was more towards electric power and especially smaller "park flyers" as battery, motor, and radio technology rapidly advanced. Kinkade followed this trend which resulted in the development of the Park Hawk, the first production electric RC ornithopter.
