This looks to me like it's from a documentary made some years ago (Channel 4, I think) in which a group of guys constructed a remote-control 'flying saucer'.

Would you care to share some proof of the R/C toys that you have seen to make that comparison ?.

The Chinese one is definitely faked. In the Chinese one you can tell where they went from filming something in the sky to using a computer generated image. It looks like they started with an actual image of something fuzzy in the sky, but at the end it gets super sharp and in focus. There is no doubt at all it is fake. I do not know about the UK one though.

I think the news item shown here was a genuine report that came out before the hoax was owned up to.

Thanks. If it were not for your heads up I would have bought it as authentic. Have to admit it sure looks real.

I find it hard to believe that a remote control UFO has been prototyped. If anyone has any links please provide. If this was a remote control then these guys have engineered a masterpiece.

Begs the question though why there is no clear video or still images of UFO's in general?

As you will have seen from our news pages – posted in the early hours of 17 August, the morning after the skywatch – a certain amount of excitement gripped numerous people who had been at Avebury on skywatch night of 16 August - thanks to a sighting of a 'flying saucer'.
OK, so what was the background to this attempted hoax?
The story goes back several months, and two programmes commissioned by Channel 4, and produced by Chrysalis Television. Back in June APRA was contacted by Chris Harries of Chrysalis, who was then seeking people who would be willing to be interviewed for a planned documentary - tentatively entitled The Believers - on the subject of witnesses who had their whole idea of UFOs/aliens changed by their first sighting – I gave Chris’s contact details to several people who I thought might be interested, but curiously none of these proposed interviews came to fruition. At the time, Chris mentioned a second documentary that was also being planned, but he declined to give details – now we know why…
