On this episode, we welcome friend of the show, Ken Sherman from Phoenix UAS. We've been flying with Ken for years and he is one of our OG FPV crew members, but this is his inaugural visit to the show. Ken is knowledgeable about drone policy, all things Remote ID (RID), building custom FPV drones, photography and he's even an experienced bike rider too! Join us as we power through some technical issues (please bear with us) and ramble with our friend Ken!--- Guest info:Ken Sherman Phoenix UAShttps://www.phoenixuas.us--- http://RotorRamble.com https://linktr.ee/rotorrambleHosts: Kevin Barber Danny Engesser#drones #rotorramble #desmoinesuavclub #515fpv #iowa #dannyengesser #kevinbarber

We’re back, baby! Rotor Ramble returned to the small screen with our first livestream version of the show. Viewers joined the YouTube livestream as we rambled on about some of the latest drone stories in the world and participated in the conversation through the YouTube chat — viewers also brought topics and questions to the conversation.

Welcome to Rotor Ramble, where hosts Danny and Kevin dive deep into the world of drones and their impact on technology, society, and the latest gossip in the drone community. In this episode, they revisit a contentious drone bill in Iowa, explore new drone acquisitions like the Avata 2, and share insights from their experiences with drone live streaming at a bike race and capturing the recent eclipse with drones.

On this edition of Rotor Ramble, we get a report from the Iowa Statehouse by Kevin and special guest, Bridger Hawkinson. We discuss House bill HF 572 and Senate bill SF 520 that attempt to address flying over homesteads. We go on to discuss House bill HF 2180, which attempts to address drone deer recovery in Iowa. Stay informed and get involved in your own state government -- don't let bills like these sneak by unanswered!

Were you good last year and gifted a new drone under the tree? Did you just buy your first drone and don't know what to do next? Have no fear, Rotor Ramble hosts, Danny and Kevin share their top 10 tips for new drone owners, and they break down some of the basic steps you need to take in order to fly legally in the national airspace.

Are you leaving money on the table? Many drone creators struggle with how to go about licensing their photos and video. On this Copyright 2023 edition of Rotor Ramble, we discuss the nuances of licensing your content, how to protect your content, and ultimately how to come out ahead when it comes to making a profit from your licensed content.
