I am the proud father to an awesome future pilot and I am the husband to a very understanding wife. My proudest accomplishments are becoming a father and becoming a member of Team Futaba! I love flying IMAC and full size with my 18MZ, and I always seem to find myself starting new projects then forgetting about them because of flying! My favorite flying field is KW Flying Dutchman Field in St.Jacob's, Ontario.

I have been into RC aircraft since 1965, motorcycles since 1970, and boating for my entire life. I have been in the hobby business since 1990 and currently own JTEC Exhaust Systems, Radiowave Aircraft, and Dalton Aviation. Along with my son, Kevin, we have designed and manufactured several successful IMAC aircraft. This includes models that won the 2017 Clover Creek, 2017 Tucson Shootout, 2018 IMAC Worlds held in Muncie, and 2019 TUS with the Dalton designs. One of my prize possessions is a 1977 BMW R75/7. It belonged to my father. We spent a lot of time riding together and taking motorcycle trips. In 1987 when he passed I inherited the bike. Both Kevin and my son-in law learned to ride on that bike, which I passed along to Kevin in 2018. To get away from the business, Kevin, MY son-in-law Miguel, myself and usually one of my very close friends would take a motorcycle trip or two each year to different places. For some reason it always' seemed we would end up at the Tail of the Dragon on the NC-TN boarder. 318 turns in 11 miles. Its sort of a motorcycle haven like Joe Nall is to RC. I enjoy restoration of cars and motorcycles, and have previously owned several original mini-coopers from the 1960's. Since they we not allowed to be imported after January of 1968, we would restore them and show them off. Currently I have a 1980 Kawasaki kz1000 Z1R D3 that is undergoing restoration. One of my favorite things to do is spend time with my family and grandson. Both Kevin and his family and my daughter and her family live a fair distance away so time spent with them is always to short. My primary hobby though will always be designing and building models. Sorry, but I have been involved in RC since 1965 so it has been a lifetime hobby! It passed onto my son and now my grandson at age of four is showing great interest. If I go to build, he comes with me and helps. We have been flying Futaba since 1990. I currently own Futaba's 18SZ, 12ZX, and 7UAP radios, as well as lots of receivers and servos. The R7014 receiver has to be one of the most versatile around for S.Bus. My favorite field is WSRC Mocksville, NC - our home flying field. In a radius of about 35 miles, we have five or more flying fields available.Email Al Young at JTEC@EarthLink.net and Sales@JTECRC.com Follow Al on Facebook, the JTEC Radiowave Facebook, the Dalton Aviation Facebook, and his son Kevin's Facebook.

Outside of driving RC, I enjoy BMX, basketball, and snowboarding. My favorite Futaba product is the 7PX transmitter, and I'm proudest of accomplishing third in 40+ at RCGP and 14th overall in RC2. I play in a garage band, raced BMX professionally, and I play in a couple of basketball leagues. My favorite track isThe Yard RC.Email Brian 'Bogi' Givens atVolumeBogi@Yahoo.comFollow Bogi on Facebook and Instagram.

RC Cars are my prized possession and I'm very competitive! My proudest accomplishment was when I TQ'd and won the Horizon Championship for my class in 2015. I have two boys that keep me busy and I love very much. My other hobbies include basketball, football (Go Packers!), Motocross, and playing golf. My favorite Futaba product is my 7PX, and my favorite track is Trackside Hobby and Raceway in Milwaukee, WI.Email Casey Blasczyk at GoFisty@Gmail.com

My hobbies of choice include scale aerobatics (IMAC) and 3D helicopters - I especially enjoy them using my Futaba 18SZ transmitter and CGY760 gyro. I'm proud to have accomplished the title of 2018 IMAC Intermediate World Champion. My dad taught me to fly - I've been flying since I was nine - and I am lucky to have been able to turn my hobby into a career! I'm a huge Boston sports fan, especially hockey, and I have visited 36 states so far and hope to see them all. My favorite fields are AMA Headquarters in Muncie and Bear Mountain Flyers in California.Follow A.J. on Facebook.

My hobby of choice is model airplanes - my dad got me into the hobby and we still fly together. I love my Futaba 32MZ transmitter and am proudest of placing ninth at the 2017 F3A World Championship. I enjoy Top Golf and long walks on the beach, and I fly UAVs for a living. I am a hot wing connoisseur and have been working on my modeling career.Email AC Glenn at AirplaneShawty@iCloud.com Follow AC on Facebook and Instagram.
