I have done a little digging and found a lot of similarities about the suspected UFO seen in Wesley Chapel and other similar or exact sightings both local and abroad.
Sightings of this very formation of lights are also report on MUFON CMS.
Also here is video captured last year from the same area in March.
Now at this point I was thinking miss-identification or elaborate hoax but I noticed video of the "exact" object from other places around the world. Examples below. These additional videos will show that the Hoax theory or RC / kite theory may not be feasible unless it is the most popular type of kite in the world and everyone flies them mostly at night.
Brazil
Belgium
UK Daytime Sighting
California
What is being rumored is this may be a military long range reconnaissance craft of some kind with unknown mode of propulsion called the TR-3B Platform. This is not my conclusion but rather just a theory based off what has been witnessed. It has also been observed that sightings of this particular type of craft is usually after reports of other UFO sightings have been made. I can't substantiate this but I will look into it. As far as case number 18256 the conclusion is unknown. Sheriffs officers also witnessed the object and are interested in find the source if it is a hoax because what they did was very illegal and dangerous specially if tethered. This is because it is above a major highway and small municipal airport. I would lean more towards the military theory because of the volume of the exact craft seen around the world.
If anyone knows about or has other reference videos or evidence we are always interested in what you can contribute.

Thanks for posting this easynow, this is one of the better videos I have seen in sometime (beats all the CGI, birds, flares, etc). It appears to me that it could possibly be either a stealth blimp (due to the motions), the rumored TR-3B (due to shape and appearance), or a true UFO. I do not like the kite theory because it looks WAY to big to be a kite, even with the general lack of perspective. I also do not think it is a hoax (RC toy) because I truly believed the peoples reaction to be genuine, as well the overall feel and appearance of the video. Good video, I am interested to see what, if any further evidence from this documented sighting can be found.
It looks like the Lockheed TR-3B. I've seen it myself a few times around midnight in Orlando, generally near the Orlando Airport and near Lockheed's Sand Lake Rd facility. Lockheed also has a facility in Ocala. It's probably one of ours. But great video!!
you will also like this video from California. Watch at the end where it slowly generates a large ball of light, and its gone.

A RECENT PHENOMENON?
One reason that black triangles are considered to be manmade military aircraft is the mistaken impression that all sightings of these craft have been within the last twenty years. However, research on past UFO reports has uncovered a significant number of triangle-shaped UFOs dating as far back as the 1930's and possibly even before.

Great Video 100% not a kite, way to big and stayed in the same spot for 2 and a half hours? I don't think so.
I want to state that it's really BAD FORM to call logical questioning "dis info" IMHO... Seriously, how else can we possibly get at the truth?
ATS is all about the denial of ignorance, one of the best ways to deny ignorance is to question, investigate and proffer theories when the evidence at hand is unidentifiable.

The guys speaking on the video mentioned the possibility of it being a kite.
It's a pity the video isn't clearer......as always!

Yeah it was stationary and he still couldn't hold the camera steady... no tripod? how about holding it against a tree or post or something
