David. Hands down.

Have to agree: David!

sidenote: facial hair: you cannot influence it. I know a guy who did participate in Movember, and after two weeks posted a 'result', all I could think was: that is a three day 'mustache' (for me), but took him two weeks ...
Sometimes (in Movember) it is a blessing, at other times it is a curse (why is all this stuff growing, well... , never mind)

Yes obviously Davids is the best. Josh looks like "The Friendly Eastern European Gangster" from som really messed up imaginary kids tv-show. Like if he was about to teach them about, i don't know, gangster stuff...

Hey guys! Enjoyed the podcast very much. Great topics! David, I found this video that RCModelReviews posted regarding how to make reed valves for pulse jets. Thought it might help. Cheers! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEnNMTMZadw&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Has to be David, he looks like hes been growing it since first seeing Magnum PI or Nigel Mansell won the F1 world championship... Excellent.

David, could you post a parts list for your shoulder rig? I'm especially interested in the hardware you used to mount the camera on the rig.

A new gimbal? (at 1.04.58) Is it made of wood or is it 3D printed? Is it GoPro 2 compatible (I don't have money to buy a GoPro 3 or 3+)? When is it going to be released? I have looked in those things and all of those commercial ones are overpriced for what they really are.

I like the idea of a quad copter challenge, I would love to get into multi-rotor flying. BTW thank you Josh B. for letting me fly your prototype. that was my first time flying a multi and it was scary but you had confidence in me and the faith to let me fly it, that was sooo much fun, even if it was getting dark. I have to build me one know.
Thanks

Another great podcast! I teach a film/video class at a high school and you guys touched on so much good content and tips for DSLR shooting. I think I just might subject my students to this podcast!

Great Podcast. Broadcast professional and rookie pilot so laughed the entire time I was listening to the feed. Lots of my friends have said why don't I make videos. Errr takes time and a crew to do it right. Keep up the great work guys. Very jealous you can combine your passion and work together. I need to make a plane that can support my GoPro again. No fun other wise.

One of the first segments of the podcast regarding filming RC airplanes is begging for an automatic camera tracking (pointing) system! Might be a little complicated but it would be nifty for filming at your office location and I'm sure David would enjoy figuring out the electronics. Let me know if you'd like any assistance - happy to contribute. David...nicely done! (See graphic.) http://myswedishmustache.blogspot.com/2013/09/my-swedish-mustache.html

Hi Flitetest crew! This is Michaël speaking, you've just listened my voicemail in the #7 Podcast, about the European version of Flitetest. Sorry for the lack of informations, my baby girl just hit the "send" button before I write my mail adress...
About the EU version (like Topgear, you've noticed), of course it's dangerous and I'm not sure it could work as great as original one. But trying to translate existing FT articles could be great, I've already done it for my brother that don't speak any word of english. And it's volunteer work, it's my passion, not my job. I do it for pleasure, so I must not mix everything.

Dont worry Josh about your hi-speed "US accent" speaking, I do the same in french and I often repeat what I say... ;)

Have a good day and see you soon!

Michaël from France.

Thanks a lot for the great podcast, they make my day realy nice in work!

As you inspire me a lot to make video about my creations i especialy like this podcast with all the descriptions about your equipment and what you use and what works and what not.

I hope i can do some of this stuff myself in the future.

THANK you!

realy?! EDF jet is comming, YEAH!!
Log In to reply

Its Boh-kay not Boh-kah. It's a japanese word simply meaning blur. It should be spelled boke, but you need to use Japanese pronunciation to understand how to say it.

Sorry, its just a pet peeve.

So, a FT-Jet is in the works. Many of us (like me) will want to build the FT-Jet as soon as it is released. Please consider announcing (in advance) the recommended EDF size/kV rating so we can order from HobbyKing, LazerToys, etc. right now. That way, we will have the EDF when the FT-Jet is announced. Otherwise, everyone will sell out and we'll be waiting months for restock and delivery from Hong Kong.

HK has reed valves, they are backordered as of now: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__50531__Replacement_Reed_Valves_for_HobbyKing_34_Red_Head_34_Pulse_Jet_Engine_5pcs_Bag_.html

Great show guys! You've got me into the hobby and really motivated me. The podcasts and vids are full of fun and good info. Like the idea of multi-rotor beginners guide. Keep up the great work. Thanks and regards

So funny to hear you mention about making the song a ringtone. I was just thinking about that tonight! Would love to see something like that.

David needs a red cap with a "M" on the front. Then he can say: "Itsa me Mario!"

I know my review is so late...but David's 'stache' looks a little fake...did he just happen to get a hair cut too, maybe a little 'cut & paste'
