New Jeti Products!
Hey guys! I just wanted to let you know we have some brand new Jeti items in stock. The newest telemetry sensor, the MAlti is a new altitude sensor that uses the atmospheric pressure to calculate the distance above sea level, much like the MVario2. It is a great sensor if you need a basic altimeter. It measures three different parameters, air pressure, altitude, and the temperature of your sensor. The cost of the sensor will save you about 35 dollars from the MVario2.
The other new gadget from Jeti is the DSM ESC Switch. This little guy automatically monitors and switches between two power supplies either Two Rx Batteries, Rx Battery & ESC or Two ESCs. This device is great if you have a twin motor setup.
From The Flight Line – Butch’s Comanche
Take a look at this amazing helicopter that one of our customers has been working on. Completely custom, this helicopter just amazes me. It is comprised of a 65″ Len Mount Fuselage, KDE T-Rex 700 upgrade parts, two Scorpion motors (one for main and one for tail), and two Castle Creations ESCs. The cockpit is built from scratch, andn even has animated displays that run on a ten minute loop. Click “Read More” to see more photos!
Flysafe Training Was A Success
The Atlanta Flysafe Training was a great experience to be a part of. Charles Eide, the founder, kick started the training on Friday with a huge welcome. After the welcome, the training courses started, covering topics from a basic introduction to RC all the way up to the business aspects of aerial photography. Atlanta Hobby kept the excitement going with amazing product demonstrations including the brand new Inspire 1 4K quad. Not only was this a training course, there were raffle giveaways that excited almost everyone in attendance. A giant hats off to the guys at Flysafe, and Congrats to all the students!

Meet Chuck
Chuck first got started in the hobby in 1984. His first love was RC Fixed Wing. Once the late 90’s hit, chuck became addicted to the world of helicopters. He was involved in a local flying club called the Tulsa Glue Dobbers, where he and many other friends would fly Helicopters. With-in the last few years, some of his flying companions at the club decided to break off and create a Heli Club called Broken Arrow Rotors. In only a year’s time, the Broken Arrow Rotors club managed to turn an abandoned county nursery into a quality RC field, building a shelter and installing power. You can find Chuck and his club-mates attending several Funflys, including IRCHA, throughout the year. ” I competed in the IRCHA Speed Cup the first two years it was held, and I plan on competing in sportsman class this year.” States Chuck.
Welcome to the team Chuck!
