Our First Quadcopter Shootout is Ready!
We have been getting so many people asking us what our thoughts are on the ‘best rc quad’ lately.

Flyzone Tidewater EP Seaplane Video
New from Flyzone is the Tidewater EP Seaplane video. you get a chance to get some info and details about the plane as well as see it in action. This is one of those times, where if I had some actual ‘flying skills’ I think it would be really cool to fly one of these. Check out the video [...]
