Integrated remote control and storage housing

Abstract

An integrated remote control and storage housing is herein described. The housing is for controlling and storing a remote control toy flying object such as a helicopter. The housing comprises a body, the body having controls on an exterior face. The controls are for at least controlling the directional motion of a toy flying object. Additionally, the body includes an interior compartment being for stowing the toy flying object when not in use, and a power supply providing power for the remote control and optionally for charging a miniature remote controlled toy flying object. The housing optionally permits a first toy flying object to charge while operating a second toy flying object.

1 . An integrated remote control and storage housing for controlling and storing a remote control toy flying object, the housing comprising a substantially rectangular box shaped body, the body having controls on an exterior face, the controls being for at least controlling the directional motion of a toy flying object, and an interior compartment for the body being for stowing the toy flying object when not in use. 
   
   
       2 . The housing of  claim 1 , further comprising a second compartment for batteries. 
   
   
       3 . The housing of  claim 1 , wherein the interior compartment of the housing is accessible through a cover. 
   
   
       4 . The housing of  claim 3 , wherein the cover is slidably movable permitting access to the interior compartment by sliding the cover to an open position. 
   
   
       5 . The housing of  claim 4 , wherein the controls are located on an upper portion of a face of the housing and the cover is located on a lower portion of the face of the housing. 
   
   
       6 . The housing of  claim 1 , wherein the controls additionally control a toy flying object's velocity. 
   
   
       7 . An integrated remote control and storage housing for controlling and storing a remote control toy flying object, the housing comprising a body, the body having controls on an exterior face, the controls being for at least controlling the directional motion of a toy flying object, an interior compartment to the body being for stowing the toy flying object when not in use, and a power supply providing power for the remote control and optionally for charging a flying object. 
   
   
       8 . The housing of  claim 7 , wherein the housing being for optionally permitting the charging of a first toy flying object while operating a second toy flying object. 
   
   
       9 . The housing of  claim 7 , wherein the power supply includes batteries, the power supply being for connection to the flying object when the flying object is in the stowed position. 
   
   
       10 . The housing of  claim 7 , wherein the interior compartment of the housing being accessible through a cover. 
   
   
       11 . The housing of  claim 10 , wherein the cover is slidably movable permitting access to the interior compartment by sliding the cover to an open position. 
   
   
       12 . The housing of  claim 7 , wherein the controls additionally control a toy flying object's velocity. 
   
   
       13 . The housing of  claim 11 , wherein the controls are located on an upper portion of a face of the housing and the cover is located on a lower portion of the face of the housing. 
   
   
       14 . An integrated remote control and storage housing for controlling and storing a remote control toy flying object, the housing comprising a body, the body having controls on an exterior face that are substantially flat and operable by a substantially movable sliding action of a control pad being substantially parallel and relatively aligned with the face of the body, the controls being for at least controlling the directional motion of a toy flying object, and an interior compartment to the body being for stowing the toy flying object when not in use. 
   
   
       15 . The housing of  claim 14 , wherein the interior compartment of the housing being accessible through a cover. 
   
   
       16 . The housing of  claim 15 , wherein the cover is slidably movable permitting access to the interior compartment by sliding the cover to an open position. 
   
   
       17 . The housing of  claim 16 , wherein the controls are located on an upper portion of a face of the housing and the cover is located on a lower portion of the face of the housing. 
   
   
       18 . The housing of  claim 14 , further comprising a second compartment for batteries. 
   
   
       19 . An integrated remote control and storage housing for controlling and storing a remote control toy flying object, the housing comprising a substantially rectangular box shaped body, the body having controls on an exterior face, the controls being for at least controlling the directional motion of a toy flying object, and an interior compartment for the body being for stowing the toy flying object when not in use. 
   
   
       20 . The housing of  claim 19 , wherein the interior compartment of the housing is accessible through a cover, and wherein the cover is slidably movable permitting access to the interior compartment by sliding the cover to an open position
