The first installment airs this Thursday, July 11, and will air each Tuesday and Thursday through Aug. 29 with a new installment and video. If you ever wanted to build an RC plane, this is your chance to learn from a pro.

Today Lucas will join us for Day 2 of Maker Camp to talk about the Maker Hangar and RC planes in general. Joining Lucas will also be Breck Baldwin of Brooklyn Aerodrome. Tune in at 11am PST right here!
