I also was very pleased to hear about the possibility of a Podcast (with FlyingMonkey) about the Forums. Just the info you all discussed in this show was VERY informative. I actually would have written quicker.. but I was off having a blast in the links you posted. I don't get enough time to spend poking around in the forum, and getting some great topics pointed out weekly is a great idea.
My best to you all.. Sorry I could not make it to FliteFest, but so glad I helped with the KIckstarter. Obviously a huge amount of new directions and neat things are coming from it already..

You guys mentioned having signal problems when flying indoors. Im no expert with FPV gear, but i would say that it might be multipath interference since you're flying in such a tight space.
Other thing is, one of the last voicemails mentioned that crashing is okay. I am right there with that guy. I watched flite test before i got into flying, and it showed me that crashing was not only ok, but that it is part of the hobby. If i didnt crash so much, i wouldnt be nearly as into modding and changing my planes. All my planes would be boring and stock designs. Great podcast, and welcome Peter!

The postman just dropped off a brand mini KK board at home.
While it is designated for my 250 quad I think I'm going to try my luck with a transition plane first ;)
