 Hey guys, welcome to Rotor Riot. My name is Drew Camden, President of the company and I wanted to talk to you today about what is Rotor Riot and what can you expect from us in the new year of 2019. Rotor Riot is dedicated to FPV freestyle. We want to grow the community and the culture of this hobby that we love so much. Most importantly, what you're familiar with is the show here on YouTube, but there's more to us than that. We have a retail operation where we try to provide pilots with all the parts that they could need to do what we do. We have a line of original and licensed products. We do QuadBox, which is a subscription box, and we also do QuadCamp, a whole series of educational initiatives. So what can you expect from all of these things in 2019? Let's talk about the show first, because I'm really excited about a lot of the big episodes that we have planned, and I want to introduce to you the official cast of Rotor Riot for 2019. First off is Kevin Doherty, who goes by Stinger Swarm. Kevin used to be a skateboarder, and you can really see that and how he approaches the tricks that he does. He'll find the thing that everyone else says isn't possible or isn't worth the amount of crashing, and he just doesn't care. It's usually some sort of crazy power loop. He is the power loop king after all, and he will throw his quad at this trick over and over again until he nails it, and it's always impressive. Beyond that, Kevin used to be a commercial airline pilot, so he has a really extensive knowledge of aviation, and he also did instruction for flying full scale planes. So outside of the show, Kevin does a lot for the educational programs in QuadCamp. Next up, we have Bot Grinder. Bot Grinder is a really unique dude. He brings this punk rock vibe. His flying is raw and aggressive. He is also one of the coolest guys to be around. He is super down to earth. He wants to grow the diversity of FPV. He really wants this to be a hobby that anyone can enjoy, and that's something that we all believe in. Jeboy Vortex has probably been flying RC stuff more than anyone else on the team. He came from collective pitch helicopters, and that's something you can see in his style. It's very aggressive, very technical, and he's also a pilot that doesn't let the fear of crashing get in the way of his flying. He is known as the Bando King because he has made so many epic flight videos from the many abandoned buildings found in Detroit. You're going to learn something today. Joshua Bardwell is a talented pilot, but he is even more well known for a massive library of video content that he's created to help people learn how to build, tune, fly. Everything required to enjoy this hobby. He has a talent for taking the complex and making it simple and easy to understand. He has also developed a number of products with this exact same approach, putting simplicity and user experience first. If you only know him from his educational content and from his products, let me also tell you he is just an awesome guy on and off camera. He's a pleasure to be around, and he loves flying and he loves sharing that with everyone. Tommy Tabahia, a.k.a. Oh my God. When I think of him, I think of precision flying. Long locked in lines over the ocean, snappy acro moves that always end perfectly on axis. He's relentless about precision and refinement. Whenever Tommy puts out a video, you know it's going to be something extra special because he has put a lot of time into thinking about everything that he can to make it something unique. You see this same meticulousness and originality in the products he's designed. Tommy has come out with multiple frames that challenge a lot of the standards of frame design using a mix of materials and atypical architectures. Tommy crafts frames that don't fly like anything else. They fly just the way that he wants them. Our newest member of the team, Corey Tapp, goes by cricket FPV. Feels like he came out of nowhere, but he is hungry to be one of the best FPV pilots. He pushes himself to do tricks that you don't see a lot of like backwards dives. Things that you just assume he's got to be lucky to pull off, but he's actually practiced it to the point of consistency. The best part about flying with Corey is that just as much as he pushes himself, he's pushing you. He's always trying to egg you on to get you to try new things. He wants to see everybody push themselves and improve their flying. And lastly, myself on screen, I go by Lydrib and I want my flying to flowy. I want all of the tricks to just melt together. My favorite thing about FPV is how it blends art and science. It takes technical skills to build and fly these machines and it allows you to create this visual aesthetic art. We've got some really exciting content coming this year.

What can you expect to see from us this year? First off, our retail store, store.rotoriet.com. We want to provide FPV pilots with the best selection and shopping experience. Everything that you need to do what you see us do on the Rotoriet show, we want to help you find it. Whether you are a beginner or experienced, we hope that we can help keep you in the air and enjoying flying. Beyond just selling parts for FPV drones, we also create them. We have partnerships with manufacturers in the industry that lead in innovation and quality. Our biggest product line is hype train motors. Of course, motors are what actually spin the props and make the thrust, but we also believe they're the jewelry of the drone. They should look good. Hype train motors are specced by the Rotoriet Pro pilots. The signature versions are tailored to their exact flying style. So no matter how you want to push yourself and your flying, we have a motor for you. To learn more about our selection of motors and other hype train products, check out hypetrainfpv.com. Now, if you can't get enough drone goodies or you're always looking for a good deal, check out Quadbox. That's a monthly subscription box and discount club. As a Quadbox subscriber, you get a box of FPV stuff every month. Tools, cool t-shirts, stickers, and parts for your drone. And then you also get access to an exclusive highly discounted website where you can find really good deals to keep your fleet of quads up and running. If that sounds like fun, head over to quadbox.com to sign up. FPV can be a really technically challenging hobby. If you're just starting out, there are a lot of learning hurdles that you have to get over before you can even get in the air for the first time. And even once you're experienced, you'll probably keep encountering little problems and issues that you're not familiar with. So for that, we have QuadCamp. QuadCamp offers online streams and classes as well as in-person seminars to help you learn to build, tune, fly, everything that's involved with this hobby. In the new year, QuadCamp is going to create even more educational offerings such as a part 107 training course for pilots that want to use FPV drones or really any sort of flying machine for commercial operations. Check out quadcamp.com to see our schedule of online streams as well as in-person seminars. We might be coming to a city near you. Alright guys, thank you so much for tuning in to learn more about Rotorat and I hope that you will stay tuned to the channel. Again, remember to hit that subscribe button and bell icon.
