Gunsmoke 2024

This week we recount Shannons trip to Gunsmoke 2024. Shannon takes us through getting his airplane ready and what it took to compete in this years event. The event was hosted by Arizona Model Aviators in Mesa, AZ and had about 13 pilots competing Lots of fun to be had and the T-28 was a winner. Michael finished the motion RC OV-10 that he received as a gift and is ready for the maiden. Jay asked about syncing the motors on a multi engine airplane and the OV-10 did sync up correctly. Michael painted the rocket tips on the model to get slightly more scale They turned out great.

Warbirds and Classics AZ

This week we join AZ Mike and Shannon at the warbirds and classics 2024 held here in Phoenix, AZ. We are joined by special guest Scott Berryman from Boulder, CO. This is Scotts first warbirds and classics event and we discuss our favorite planes and the flying we were able to do and some of the amazing things we saw during the event. During our show some event goers decided to ground test a Panther turbine in the background and tried to overpower our show! But we pushed through it. We are sorry for the turbine noise during our recording. But we had loads of fun and enjoyed having Scott on the show. Thanks to all who attended and we look forward to your comments and suggestions. Thanks for joining us and we look forward to your continued support.

AZEF 2024 - Part 1

Welcome to the AZEF. This is the 20th year of this event and we are excited to be a part of the festivities. Day one was spent setting up and dodging winds and weather and finishing up putting all the aircraft together and charging batteries. This year we added some video to our podcast over on our you tube channel and spent the day testing it out and trying to get it all to work. So this episode starts us on a very busy second day. Friday morning channel 10 the local Fox news, did a spot for us on the event and Michael flew several airplanes for them as B roll so they could use it in their broadcast. The Parkflyer Podcast was all over the news with our new gear and as it turned out we had a massive turnout of spectators who all sought us out to ask questions since they saw our staff all over the TV. Fun was had by all and lots of flying and running around covering questions and answer sessions the day just flew by....Join us as we start and finish the day on this episode and check out our coverage of the event on our you tube channel.

Avanti S V2

This week we discuss the upgrades to the Avanti S version 2. One of our listeners, Scott, purchased an Avanti S from motion RC and had it shipped to AZ Mikes place for a quick build and set up. After opening the box and putting it all together we noticed a few upgrades from version one. After a little research it has come to our attention that there have been several upgrades to this version over the last, all of which are excellent. AZ Mike walks us through the upgrades and the simplistic build of the PNP version.
