This is only the second time I've watched one of your videos. I really like how you present them and enjoy watching them. Cheers.

John, I was waiting for the history buffs to chime in. I hope people don't take this as the gospel but more my and others experiences with the hobby. I've been doing this 25 years but that would have been a long video.... ;)

Funny video, but the timeline is all over the place. The DIY community was playing with FPV video links as early as 2003/2004 at least.

Short, entertaining, and to the point: What's next? Thanks for putting this together!
