Had a good time at the WRAM show catching up with Noll, Arron, Joe, Jim, Chris, Glenn, and James at 3DHS. Was great to see the DA 35 and DA-70 and catch up with all the guys at DA as well. As always Lee and Colton were a pleasure to fly and hang out with in the cage, Horizon is lucky to have them. I was also able to meet Dave Lockhart and the same goes for him. My friends from IMAC and the AMA were working hard as always. It was very encouraging to get a peak at the things that the AMA is doing for FPV pilots to keep them and other hobbyists safe from overzealous legislators eager to take advantage of the "drone" paranoia.
It was also great to meet Moose and Pontus. Moose and I got into an enthusiastic discussion about aileron servos which only left a few bruises and very little blood (kidding!). It was also great to meet Luke of Luke's RC; it was awesome to be able to send everybody who asked about the Twisted foamies I was flying right to Luke's booth.
Was also awesome to see Erik and Aaron Griffin; Aaron was tearing it up with his Crack Yaks. Tommy Maharis was also flying really well and I look forward to seeing him on the IMAC circuit this summer.
It was also great to check out the Epsrit booth. The Jeti DS-16 is a great transmitter and I look forward to getting one!

Anyone going to Toledo or SEFF this year? I see a topic for Nall but nothing for the other two. I was sure that if there was a WRAM topic Toledo would get coverage. Anyway, I'll be doing a good part of the show circuit this year, including the 3 I mentioned. Not sure if Warbirds over Delaware counts as a 3D event 
but Nall and SEFF both have dedicated 3D flight lines

It was good to see you at the WRAM show and catch up Jim. Thanks for your advice, I will keep it in mind as I move forward.
SEFF was a blast for me last year and probably one of my most important events. I have heard that unfortunately a lot of the people I had a great time with will not be there. Based on the amount of events I have planned, I don't think I will make SEFF 2013. However it's always a great time and a one-of-a-kind event so if you have the opportunity to go you should take it.
The 3D lines at SEFF and Nall are very different....SEFF is like racing four of your friends around Daytona in go-carts, Joe Nall is like racing twenty other people through a Dunkin' Donuts drive-through in monster trucks.

Just felt it was best to give you that heads up. i would love to hear your impressions as things unfold. glad we happened to cross paths and you mentioned it. It was very specific to my club in the very beginning so I saw the start. YMMV
I heard so much about SEFF from TheCrashCast last year and Bildo's videos that I figure I'll give it a shot. I'm trying to hit all the reachable venues this year at least once. I'll probably go to eNall as well and some of the Warbird shows and NEAT of course
Great visual!!
Will you be doing the wednesday night sessions this year? I'd love to get some pointers/hints with the Byper
And to get back on topic, I'll be talking about the WRAM show on TheCrashCast this weekend. Show #200. not that I escaped the booth and saw very much of it when things were open

I am going to do my usual 1 day Toledo visit on friday. I get to fly for free, so the whole day costs me under a $100 including the car rental, just a long day. This year I am probably going by myself. I will have photos and say hi to the 3DHS crew and pick up something, probably a gas tank. Kind of hard to bring back a ARF on Delta.
