  • Quick shout out to the FTAH guys for giving us a shoutout and also the Crashcast Crew for their shoutout as well!
  • Ben Greenewalt ripped off by someone “selling” a NAZA.  Info from my chat with Big Ben:

"So guy put up that naza m Lite I was buying for 75$. I paid him thru PayPal and waited to get tracking info. Nothing wont answer me on messenger now. Email is shut down and now the Facebook account is too. Filed a police report contacted PayPal they're "reviewing" it so hopefully I'll get my money back"

If you haven't seen the build video, here it is. My favorite part is where Asbjorn blankly stares at Josh while he is filming. LOL!!!! I totally forgot about this moment until I just watched the vid. That was Thursday night and everyone was already fried! FTFF was tough on the volunteer side of things this year due to the weather. Very stressful, but in the end, it came off well! That is due to our great community!

Any chance we can get a good picture of the re-purposed electrical part Josh used for the wing build? I nice picture of how he used it would be awesome as well. I couldn't find a good picture of it or find it on Josh's YouTube channel.

Just picked up and started listening to this podcast. I would have loved to been a part of this discussion. Composites rule! Before I was following Flite Test, I was using composites and foam from Home Depot. After hooking up with Flite Test, I Now build my scratch models with fiberglass skinned foam. Check it out... Nothing better...

I'm going to try the fiberglass cloth with polycrylic. Sounds really inviting.
