Arizona Electric Festival Part 1 – S2E5

Michael and Jay attend the AZ Electric Festival.  With mixed weather and winds the flying was kept to a minimum but a good time was had by all.  In this episode Shannon Gallagher explains what it takes to get this event off the ground and into the air.

Tony Accurso with Motion RC gives up the goods on flying the soon to be released Freewing A-10 and lets us in on some upcoming aircraft soon to be released.  Seth Arnold with Flex innovations talks about their new Mamba 10 and Cessna 170.

Although the winds were crazy and rain was in the forecast there was still a great turnout and lots of good flying.  Stay tuned for part two of our show from the AZ Electric Festival
