Rotor Revolution RC Podcast

Show Notes

This week as the crew gears up for IRCHA we offer up a fun filled relaxed view of how to have fun at IRCHA. We're all tired of the "what do you pack for a funfly" episodes... so we thought we'd do a how do you have fun while you're there episode. If you've been in the hobby for a long time you know there is no better guest for such a subject than Helidirect team pilot Lamont James who brings the FUN to every funfly. There's also the usual news and updates, plus we dig in with some deep thoughts on some listener mail. Important update! We are taking a week off. Rather than try and record the Tuesday night of IRCHA week, we'll be waiting till after IRCHA to record, and so our next episode won't drop till the 19th of August. We'll use that time to get ready for IRCHA, and Brian will be busy managing team USA at the World Championships. As always... thanks for listening!

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!
