Technologies For Developing Web Pages

 In this week's show we do our normal thing, and I find myself wondering why you folks even follow our nonsense. LoL Be sure to check out the link below for Darren's Lipo Bunker - it's probably the best solution for safe charging that I've seen to date!

Also, we have our favorite multi-rotor expert and supplier, Paul "Witespy" Baxter, come on and share some of the new stuff he's added to his website since we last spoke. If you're into the multi-rotor game, I'm sure you'll be interested in some of these new items!

This Week's Slideshow

Lots of fun recording this show! Laine and Chris were missing, but Karl was able to show up for the session (though he left some customers without heat to do so! LoL). We've got our typical banter in this one, but we do actually cover some useful information when we try our best to answer a listener's email regarding LiPo batteries.

The holiday season is here and we only have two more episodes scheduled for 2014. If you've got a CHRISTmas Wish you'd like us to read on the show, email it to me! Also, I've noticed that lots of folks are including some model aviation-inspired decorations on their CHRISTmas trees and I would LOVE to have pictures of them so we can share them on our last episode of the year - so email me some pictures!

TheCrashCast Secret Santa : If you'd like to participate in this, all you have to do is send an email to [email protected]. In that email you should share your 'real' name, as well as any screen name you may use on any of the RC forums, along with your mailing address and a little about your RC interests. We'll close things down on December 1st and Laine will randomly draw names for everyone. When you get an email advising who you're to play Santa for, you'll buy and mail a special CHRISTmas gift to that personal. You can spend as much money as you'd like on your person, but there is a minimum set at $25. 

In this week's show, we have an opportunity to visit with Jonathan Sawn, the owner of Sawn-Craft. Jonathan is the third generation of his family to offer up goodies to the model-building community, and you'll certainly want to have a look at some of the cool items he's producing!

In addition to our normal level of chaos, Laine has started something new for this year - a Secret Santa exchange! If you want to get involved, all you have to do is send an email to [email protected] to let us know you want to be involved. Also share with us your full name and address, your screen name on you favorite RC forum, and a little about you and what all you're into. Though you can buy a gift for someone as expensive as you desire, we have set a minimum dollar amount at $25.

One last note - We've fired up our year-end fundraiser. Head on over to AllThingsCrash and read all about our Sponsor Gift Program!

In this 284th installment of our little show, we get the opportunity to visit with our favorite cherry farmer from the great Northwest - Dougbo!!! Doug is an avid RC pilot that enjoys all disciplines of flight - from helicopters to 3D foamies, crunchies, and gassers. Doug's latest adventure in the hobby, though, is something we find particularly interesting - he's jumped in to flying 3D Quadcopters! Join us this week to hear his comments and opinions comparing the Invertix 400 and the Leap 450 3D.

Also included this week is our usual attempt to bring you some news on what's new and interesting in our favorite sport.

Last weekend marked the 9th annual HHAEFI event at Mac Hodges compund in Andersonville, Georgia. Even though I was unable to attend this event we still have some coverage since Chris (Cathead), along with the rest of 'Arcola RC', WAS able to attend. Join us as we talk about this event and be sure to check out the Slideshow pics from this week! Oh, and let's not forget about the videos that captured the essence of this great event - nobody captures an event like Bildo! Oh, and please try to ignore the "chicken wing" references (a BAD inside joke).

In this week's installment of our little show, we dip into the mail bag and answer a few questions regarding CNC machining. If you're not into the CNC thing, no worries - this is not really an entire show on the subject. We also discuss some events, FAA news items, and a few new products.

In our 280th installment of the show we enjoy discussing a listener's comments made about a facet of our hobby that seems to be on the decline - Nitro-powered models. Join us as we reminisce about our golden days of using 'liquid fuel', as well as some of the pros and cons of Internal Combustion versus the Electric power systems most of us are using today.
