I have watched the Beginner Series dozens of times, but feel frustrated from the lack of follow through.
I am beginning to worry a little bit because I find myself preferring last years FT content to this years. All this popularity is not going to your heads I hope. Last years' Beginner Series was genius. Chad, no less, promised us a similar series covering Quads. Plus, we could do with one on FPV, IBCRazy's series notwithstanding.
I love FT still, but there is always the thing about that which brings a thing to greatness also becoming the seeds of its own downfall. Let's NOT let that happen. There probably IS a limit to how interesting it is to watch Josh and Alex fooling around with models. With David apparently out of the picture the intellectual content is in danger of dropping, in't it? The Mustang build is a step back into 'safe' territory.
All of this is just my opinion and I expect many will want to lynch me, but I love FT too and want it to carry on successfully.

In addition, I have a feeling that the multirotor beginner series may come after FF and the release of the electro hub. While I'm sure the team would love to have things done sooner, I bet they are swamped with FF logistical work right now.
I would agree that their older episodes with challenges and builds are very interesting, and they do have 2 more warbirds coming up very soon. While I think seeing more challenges and quick tips would be nice, I also like that they are continuing to try new things. I'm sure they have a hard time deciding how often to stick with the tried and true formats vs new ones.

Regarding this podcast: I think Chris did a good job for a one-man show; he delivered the content on time.

I'm not sure what solutions you have tried for the phone system, but after the great google-voice-protocol change recently we've had to scramble to change things with out business phone setup (we were using an Obihai device with google voice for free phone services) - recently switched to our Obihai and Anveo as a provider...pretty powerful "voip" type system, allows for a call flow, on hold, multiple lines, etc for relatively cheap monthly fee's. It's a bit confusing to figure out costs (very ala cart system) but we are paying roughly $9/month for an 800 number, local number, automated attendant and pretty powerful conferencing system with a great voicemail system. Not sure if any of that stuff is useful, but the Obihai stuff is also great for phone/voip type systems...cheap (and sometimes free) services. Sorry if that came off sales pitchy - but just wanted to throw it out there! Everything has a downside, just not sure what you guys are looking to to!

Tell your wife for me, from one girl to another, that there is so much in the hobby, she doesn't know what she's missing! She might not be interested in the aspects of it that draw you, but there are so many other things in it, so many different ways to fly, and for me it's that sence of real freedom I get from gliding in the wind like an eagle that really atracts me... and as soon as money allows, I want to get into multirotors for those amazing aerial footages to make some nice videos for the personal album.
Anyway, thanks again, big hugs across tbe Atlantic for you and all the team!

Suggestion: Don't give up on the "call-in" show format. It will take some time to work out the bugs, but I think FT listeners are very understanding. Even the first episode when there was a lot of confusion was still interesting.

Thanks for taking the time to put on the pod cast. One plane I would like to see flite test review is the Dream-flight Libelle dlg. Seem like a good affordable entry level dlg.
Thanks for listening.
Nick
