Chad and David answer questions about the anti-drone laws, upcoming projects, tips about propellers and more!
We decided to give Josh and Josh a week off and answer some of popular questions that we've received recently, and give you an update on some future projects.
We've had a crazy week with airplanes catching on fire and video footage getting deleted.
Our launch of the Speed Build Kits went great! So much so, that we ran out of foam board and the orders are on back order. We're working to get inventory back, as well as continuing to add new items to the web store. So be sure to check it out!
Ant-Drone laws have been in the news lately, and it could really affect our hobby! We encourage you to be involved in events and groups in your area to help keep the FPV hobby going.
Despite going swimming in a pool, this GoPro is still going strong! We've gone through a lot of GoPro camera's, they're great! But the GoPro Hero 3 has still got it's issues and shouldn't be trusted as an FPV camera, we're not sure when GoPro will get things fixed.
Our hot glue gun finally died. After 3 1/2 years of hard work the thing finally stopped.
With the new glue gun we also picked up this cool silicon mat that keeps the glue (or anything else for that matter) from sticking to it.
We've got a lot of great projects planned for the very near future! Stay tuned and thanks for all of your support.
In the meantime, check out some of these great articles:

Second question: If I can manage to get good long distance video signal, how to I get good long distance radio signal to match?
Third question: Can I route video from a single HD camera through two outputs: one clean and one with OSD overlay?
Fourth Question: Does anybody make a zoom-able camera or a night vision camera (or both) for FPV use?

Maybe that Flytron cam would be answer to 4th. Zoom and IR filters.

FPV: the AMA has a stream on it with changes going on as states and cities go insane about "drones" and FPV. You may want to get some input from them.
3d printer: some of your parts may be made on a 3D printer as prototypes.
New models: Just waiting, now I know to watch the back wall.

I guess we may now know why states are beginning to introduce laws banning FPV--- the air traffic with all those drones (600 per state!) will be ridiculous.

I am glad you are adding more to the store; even though I have been a popsicle stick horn kind of guy up 'til now, I just ordered 40 horns and will buy whatever you put up for sale if it keeps you guys doing what you do. A pack of bamboo skewers at a 200% markup? Yep, I'll buy it. Thanks for all you do.
