[googlevideo]-5716825814293910111[/googlevideo]

We were contacted by the presenters of the US made online TV show, RC TV Live, to tell us about their program. While i had heard of the show before i hadnt looked closely at it until now, and from what i’ve seen it looks like a solid and professionally made show. Presented by Jeff Maturo and Mike Boylan, the show is on its 704th episode (above), and it focuses on product reviews, tech tips and from what i can see, in depth analyses of the technology in RC, so be sure to check it out.
