Creative boyfriend gifts: GoFlyKite (RC) kites

Today, this blog post will be discussing about a unique and creative boyfriend gift that has its roots in Singapore. I am sure this is a gift that will never disappoint in any way!

Creative boyfriend gifts: GoFlyKite (GFK) revolutionary controlled (RC) kites

GoFlyKite (RC) kites are remote control kites that have no strings attached to them, and they are highly manoeuvrable, crash-resistant and easy for everyone to learn.

The GoFlyKite (RC) kites are able to do air stunts such as somesaults, do stall turns, hover in confined space, and more. In one of our Singapore’s National Day Parade, GoFlyKite (RC) kites were one of the highlight events, where seasoned pilots make their kites do acrobatic stunts and great moves in the air for our national day celebration.

Unlike regular kites, that can only fly during the day as we can only see them with sunlight, GoFlyKite (RC) kites have lights built-in on them, and they look pretty fancy at night!

There are many different kite models to choose from, and you can visit this url to see their product range: http://www.goflykite.com/products.html

Personal encounter with GoFlyKite (RC) kites

Many kite pilots gather at Clarke Quay, Singapore, at an open field to practice their skills with their kites. I once brought my girlfriend at that place, and we spent the night just gazing at beautiful night sky colored with many spectacular colored kites!

It looked truly fun and I was eager to try it, however it carried a heavy price tag: SGD$600, which is about USD$431 now.

However it looked too beautiful to miss it, and I will want to buy one for my girlfriend and myself when my finances allow in future.

Moreover, it does create a rather romantic moment where a couple could just gaze at the stars with their kites, and enjoying the moment with each other. A truly great gift isn’t it?

Background of GoFlyKite (RC) kites

GoFlyKite (RC) kites is a Singaporean invention, created by a guy named Michael Lim. Michael barely passed his Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE) started his career as a jeweler at the age of 20.

Somehow Michael was interested in flying, and soon at the age of 42 years old, he combined his hobby with his profession into a business. Michael started without any professional training in aero modelling design, and as he persevered, soon his dream became a reality!
