Sweeping legal changes are afoot that could change the hobbyist airspace for years to come. Your input can make a difference.
EL wire, power supplies, and some beginner electronics kits. Check out the goodies for this week.
It's time to squeeze in a caption contest before the end of the month - and a quick reminder about this year's AVC!
Calling all AVC Spectators - it's nearly time to get your proof of concept turned in!
If you are entering the autonomous vehicle competition (AVC) for the first time, this information from last year's participants may help you get started.
AVC is getting close, and it's time to check out the course revisions for this year.
Registration is open for AVC 2014! We're also announcing some new rules and changes for this year.
In addition to the ongoing robot competition at AVC 2013, we included some carnival-type entertainment for the attendees. We rented a dunk tank, triggered it with a swiveling mallet, and challenged people to play "Trampoline Simon Says".
