Designing your own RC airplane can be one of the most satisfying experiences in this hobby. Today we talk about some things such as:
Why design scratch builds?
Why bother with your own creation?
Where does the idea for a design start?
What programs are best?
What are some common problems you find once you take the airplane out for the first time?
What's new at FliteTest?
Well... Flite Fest 14! We talk about our upcoming event in July 2014.
The whole purpose of this event is to spend time with you and fly with you!
Thank you everyone for helping to make this possible.
More details and a Kickstarter page to come!!

I'm thinking about buying a 3d-printer so I liked that as a possible pod-cast topic (for either the 'main' podcast or the after hours). Maybe some recommendations for what a first-time buyer should be considering, how hard they are to set up, etc?
Wish I was closer to you guys, cause I don't think I can afford the airfares to get to America. (I live in Western Australia) But I'm looking forward to hearing all about it!

I strongly suggest Pocket Casts by Shifty Jelly which has an Android version and an iOS version. It's by far the best app I have found.

I've used it extensively while learning how to do my scratch builds. I also happen to have a friend who designs aircraft for a living... so that helps too. Great Podcast. Need to get going on my scratch builds again.

Found something about that fuel cell stuff. That was Tamiya TT-01 with 30w fuel cell kit. Version 1 looked like hydrogen only. Maybe acceleration wasn't nice enough and they made a hybrid version.
Interesting product... how many batteries you can buy with that money?
I think it's pretty easy to put that in some glider and maybe it might even climb.
