Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s Snoopy!

If you see anything that isn’t a bird or an aircraft flying, it can be shocking. When it is an object that our human minds are not used to seeing in the sky, it raises a question or two. Otto Dieffenbach has amazed the world with his upcycled drone. He works for FlyGuyPromotions, which specializes in creating flying and aerial images.

One man has recreated one of the most loved scenes from the iconic cartoon and comic, Peanuts. In this particular recreation, Snoopy has a particularly adventurous daydream. It involves him riding in the air on top of his big red doghouse. Those who love Snoopy can get a kick out of watching him in real life!

Fly Guy Promotions not only recreated the scene where Snoopy imagines how he would take on the Red Baron. They have also made the RTF Witch, as well as the Flyguy 62, which was inspired by Superman. Otto refers to his creations as “identifiable flying objects”, which is a fitting name, seeing as they are generally recreations of favorite characters from our childhoods.

Remote controlled quad-copter

Many people stopped and stared in bafflement. How is this doghouse flying? And how did Snoopy get there? Well, the interesting thing is that it’s a remote-controlled quad-copter. In other words, it’s a drone that was adjusted with some robotics to make it look like a red dog house with Snoopy on top. They are available for purchase from their website.

It is always a good idea to read the fine print of every online purchase. We are all familiar with the phrase “batteries not included.” But, in this case, it is an entire dog house. If you buy the flying Snoopy, note that you will need to source a dog house separately. They include everything else, easily set up by reading the instructions. So all you need to do is buy the kit and acquire a dog house.
