RC Heli Nation V 2.0

Join the gang this week as they sit behind the mic one last time…yes you read that correct, the last time. Over the last several years it has been quite the journey. There have been several hosts and listeners that have had such a huge impact on the show that we couldn’t possibly name them all. Now you may be thinking that this a bad , but remember change isn’t always bad. Not a single one of us is going to be leaving the hobby we are just looking forward to being an average, everyday citizen. As you listen to this week’s show we ask that you would go on this journey with us. We reflect back all the way to the beginning, remembering those times that had the largest effect on us. We want to thank every single listener for downloading the show and ultimately being apart of something so much larger…The Nation. For the final time we thank you for listening, we thank you for supporting us and we thank you for taking this journey with us.

Listen in this week as the guys dive into a semi technical topic. In the hobby it has become more and more common to make the tail boom and canopy out of carbon fiber, but unfortunately this is bad news for our antennas and receiver reception. The show this week covers the different types of antennas and the proper placement for each. The guys specifically hit on how to deal with carbon fiber and ensure you won’t have any reception issues. Even if you have a normal fiber glass canopy and aluminum tail boom there is still plenty to learn from this show.     News Scorpion ESC’s VControl Basic RX Experience and Compass Pulse Graphene Mavic Pro beats the dick out of GoPro!

Listen in to the live recording from the one and only RCHN 4 Fun Fly! This event was an absolute blast and as expected was even better than last year. The feedback we received from the many pilots who attended was beyond humbling and we want to thank everyone who attended for coming out and supporting the event. Everything from the pilot competitions, night flying and even the late night shenanigans made this fun fly an unforgettable one. An event like this would not be possible without some amazing companies to help us out. We owe a huge thank you to MKS and Hobbywing for stepping up to the plate to help make this fun fly possible for everyone. Without further or do, kick back, grab a cold beverage and enjoy the show!

This week the guys decide to do a double whammy and cover two topics! Half of the show is spent talking about the new generation of nitro motors that seem to be pushing these motor designs right to the limit. The guys walk through the pros and cons of the new generation motors and tie in their own personal experiences. The other half is spent talking about micros and the purpose they serve to the heli community. Some use them as a trainer while others never feel the need to move on to larger birds. Lastly be sure to listen all the way through because there might just be one lucky citizen out there who is a big winner!   News Mikado Logo 700 Order HobbyWing Wifi DB7 Pre-Order MSH Brain2 features video   The post RCHN V 2.0 EP239:Nitros and Micros appeared first on RC Heli Nation.
