A tiny helicopter made from components from mobile phones has been revealed at a huge Tokyo toy show.
Weighing just 11 grams and measuring 6.4cm in length, the miniature device is capable of flying at a range of 15ft for 5 minutes. The miniature helicopter is remarkable both due to it's small size and because of how it's been put together.
"Japan's ageing population made us think of developing a toy targeting adults," said Naoki Nakagawa of maker CCP. "Ten or twenty years ago, helicopter-toys could cost a lot of money. Those who couldn't afford it at the time can now make their childhood dream come true at a reasonable price."
