This week we sit down with one of the three owners of Tron Helicopters, Joachim Etter.  We'll learn a bit more about the recent release of their 550 size helicopters the Gemini and Orion.  We'll answer questions about why are there two different canopy and side frame design choices, how might this effect the rest of the line, and more about the future of the Tron helicopter brand in 2024.

We've got a special treat for you all this week.  We've talked before about how much we love the stories behind the products.  Greggor McGrath of Absolute CNC products has a unique story to tell.  We'll hear how his first CNC machine bought of a craigslist ad turned into a sucessful hobby business, and how a conversation between nitro enthusiasts turned into designing one of the best pipes for nitro helicopters to come around in a long time.  But even if you aren't a nitro fan you'll enjoy the story behind the development and how a small community of enthusiasts can come together to develop, test and bring to market a unique new product.  We've also got plenty of news on the leadin to the now completed Rotor Live, and our usual updates.  Speaking of Rotor Live...   we have what we think will be a GREAT episode coming in a couple weeks with all of the updates on new equipment coming out of Rotor Live.

BREAKING NEWS!!!  Surprise!  This week we're releasing a special edition mini episode (on our off week!) all about the Dubai Masters.  Sean Hall of Helidirect drops in to give us the inside scoop on what went down at the recent Dubai Masters Invitational 3D competition.  We'll hear about some of the challenges they faced, some crashes, the entire field doing piroflips at the same time together all along the runway, spending time with announcer Nik Johnson and organizer Tareq Alsaadi, and many more details about the contest.  Sadly the whole crew couldn't make this one as we rushed it into production, but we hope you'll enjoy it.  As always thanks for listening!  The whole crew will be back next week with a very special guest on our usual schedule.

Episode 9 (are we really almost at double digits?, that was quick!) is jam packed with goodness!  The efforts to make Alex buy a Dnamic continue, Nick flies almost as much as Alex, Kenny digs in to tuning his Dnamic and lots more.  The news is short and sweet this time as we head into the lull before all the Rotor Live announcements.  Stay tuned as we'll have some special rotor live coverage in a future episode.
We take advantage of the extra time to dig into Scott Graham's new flybarless / radio comparison series on his new "This Vs. That" youtube channel.  We'll learn all about the various comparison methods, which electonics he plans to cover, and why the whole thing came about.  We can't think of anyone better to do a proper fair comparison between all these FBLs and we're looking forward to seeing more from Scott.  You can check out his Youtube channel at:  www.youtube.com/@TheOfficialThisVSThat
