RC Planes are becoming very popular due to the implementation of smaller and more powerful LiPo batteries and brushless motors. Flite Test explores the principles of flight through experimentation in a backyard-engineer sort of way. Josh Bixler and Joshua Scott spend each week creating challenges, tips and projects for your enjoyment.
Radio control planes and helicopters have become the perfect platform to enable anyone to dabble in the science and mystery of flight. Weather it's a large flying machine, the smallest of indoor models or just plain weird... we're interested! And it's our mission to share what we learn with you with our weekly episodes.
Be sure to visit our website and forum to join the ongoing conversations about flight.

Flite Test was created for people passionate about RC flight. Our hope is to create a show for the people that build and fly planes as a hobby. They are the dreamers and engineers that get a thrill from the first hand launch of a maiden flight. The show will personify the veteran and the beginner alike giving them a chance to share common experiences with others, in turn, enhancing the RC community. The goal is to develop a creative outlet that allows us to work in our passion daily. Flite Test is designed to cater to the audience. It has just enough humor, technology and information to appeal to the RC flight crowd as a whole. We hope to empower, entertain and educate as we move forward with quality content.
