Airbus A380 Made from Lego Bricks and Controlled Using Touchscreen Tech

Ryan McNaught decided to make a detailed model of Airbus A380 from Lego blocks. The plane features detailed interior with scenes inspired from five different films.

There are also several landing gears and eight working Mindstorm NXT engines, which Mr. McNaught can control through a computerized A380 control panel.

By using the touchscreen controls, one can retract gears, open cargo doors, raise the air brakes, turn on the landing lights, move the tail fin, as well as move the flaps.
