Fliphone – iPhone App Controlling a Helicopter

The iPhone has spawned some serious gadgets and software’s since it’s launch. Some real and some definite fakes. Josh Ziering however claims he’s managed to create an app that through a Linux router can control a helicopter using the accelerometer in the iPhone.

I am not a huge network/radio frequency geek so I can’t swear this is true or false but my mind tells me that it’s leaning towards the latter. However, my heart really want this to be true. I guess I leave it up to you to decide whether you believe this or not. A great spoof anyways!
