The RC Newb Podcast - Episode 38: Colton Baquet (RC Bound)

The RC Newb Podcast

During my limited time exploring the world of radio-controlled aircraft, I’ve quickly discovered that the “RC Newb” label is a perfect description of my status. With that in mind, I called on a knowledgeable pilot and R/C enthusiast, Colton Baquet, to join me on this episode of the RC Newb Podcast.

Although he’s only been involved in the hobby for a few years, he’s amassed a great deal of experience in a short amount of time. Between flying a number of aircraft (and finding time to wheel a few off-road vehicles as well), he’s discovered unique aspects of these craft and what makes them tick.
