Young boy holding a model helicopter, smiling at an outdoor event.

My interest in RC began at a Latrobe airshow in Pennsylvania, where a display of model planes and helicopters completely captivated me. My dad and I would go to shows whenever we could, soaking in the sights and sounds of aircraft large and small. That early exposure planted a seed that's stuck with me for over 35 years; sometimes active, sometimes dormant, but always there.

Recently, I've found myself drawn back into the hobby with a focus on RC helicopters. It's incredible how much things have evolved; from clunky analog setups to sleek, programmable systems with precision control. Even though I haven't always been hands-on, I've stayed engaged, and it's exciting to dive back in with fresh eyes and new tech.
