Triangular shaped object hovering above a house in Bellflower CA.

Driving home at around 12:22am, I saw a triangular shaped object (more arrow head shaped) in the sky hovering about 50 to 75 feet above a house about doors down from my house. It had a red light on one side and a white light on the other with a flashing red light. Because of the flashing red light I thought it was a helicopter at first. The shape and size (smaller then any helicopter I've ever seen) is what drew my attention. It took off faster and smother then a helicopter would. I thought maybe it was a remote control hover craft because of it's size. I wish I hadn't been driving so I could hear if it was making noise. As low as it was you would think I could hear it even in the car if it was a helicopter. The flashing light makes me think it was something man made, but it was small and triangular shaped. It didn't look like anything I'd ever seen before.
