I am pretty sure Chinese toy engineers are behind this one. Technically the Santa R/C helicopter works the same as the other lightweight remote control helicopters that have been flying around homes since Christmas last year.
The rechargeable flying Santa measures 40mm x 70mm x 170mm and weighs only 10g.

Hong Kong based gadget shop Brando sells the flying Santa for $24.90. They also have a video of the flying Santa Claus on their site.

The flying R/C Santa is not alone, I found a flying R/C Austronaut on Amazon.com.
