Quirkiest RC model
Discussion
a radio controlled pig!
actually a mate once made a radio controlled duck for when he was shooting, the ducks would follow it thinking that it knew where food was!, incase you haven't got the image yet it was a boat with a plastic duck glued to it, it did look the piece though, funny too.
another mate who makes jet engines for model aircraft and UAV/targets etc lent one for the record breaking jet luge, although it wasn't quite R/C controlled so i guess that doesn't count.

When I was a kid, Dad converted a plastic Mallard into an RC boat - then took it down the canal to play with the real Mallards. Got much closer than a conventional RC boat.
I drew up plans years ago to make an RC rowing 'eight' complete with oarsmen etc. Fecking complicated mechanism, but would have been cool! Waiting for the little sprog to come along and grow up a bit before a bit of father-son/daughter bonding with RC boats & cars.

I'm tempted to take the first, and merge it with the vinyl aliens facehugger kit...
