Squirrel moments, different audio and so much more but this show felt good.

Well now the show seems to be going in the right direction.

For the first podcast of 2021, I sat down to discuss how crazy the first half of January was but how it turned around quickly.
Talked about some tech, YouTube and plans and ideas.
Lots on the go and despite 2021 looking ugh, there are some nice bright spots.

Giveaway?
*** With the pandemic, the prices of RC planes seemed to go up and there were less sales. There were less new planes released this year, at least it seemed that way. We don't know what the governments will do in regards to rule changes affecting the hobby. Hopefully 2021 will be better for new releases and planes being in stock. There have been a lot of planes out of stock this year.
the virus!
André’s Highlights:
- The yard challenge
- The Hangar RC link
- Diving into the sub 250 quads again
- The sign from Nat
- And still growing as a podcaster/youtuber
- 2021 hopes? iNav, Fuel based flight and maybe some reviews
