Rotor Revolution RC Podcast

This week the crew takes a deep dive into the tail.  In this first episode of two parts we dig into how we build out tail rotors, and how we setup our tails.  We cover everything from the tail blades to the tail servo and everything in between sharing all of our favorite tips and tricks along the way.

4 Guys, 7 Events!  Honestly it could be more...   we lost count of Kenny's back to back weeks of events.  But all of us have been attending events all over the U.S. and have a lot to talk about.  We're a little late this week, just the difficulty in syncing up 4 schedules and prioritizing all of us being here when we record.  But we are happy to report that Brian is back after sleeping through the last episode.  So lot of catching up, digging into Nick and Brian's scale projects, some new builds, and lots and lots of events, plus some news thrown in for good measure.

As always...  thanks for listening!

We're Back!  We had every intention of waiting till after IRCHA to record again, but turns out we can't keep our mouths shut that long!  Too much excitement for NATS, IRCHA, and the hobby in general.  So the crew is back to catch up on what we've been up to in our month off and a little about what's to come.

This week Alex shares the results of his ESC shootout as he tried anything he could get his hands on to see which one would run cool, perform well, and give him the most amount of flight time while still being easy to use.  His results showed a clear winner for him.  Have you tried lots of different ESC brands and settled on a winner for you?  Message us and let us know why you chose one brand over others.  We'd love to hear from you.  Plus the usual news and updates from the crew.

If you've been in the RC helicopter hobby for any length of time, you've heard UK pilot Rob Bingham's name before.  Rob is well known as a nitro guru, a tinkerer making some very nice hobby upgrades on his own CNC mill, as well as a funfly organizer and team manager for Midland Helicopters in the UK as well as a sponsored pilot for OMPHOBBY and Scorpion Motors.  Let's all get to know him a bit better shall we?
