You should bookmark it because we post some tutorials, reviews, how-to's, videos, demos, crashes, and most of all our honest reviews on many of the products that are popular in the hobby.

We have different sites that we frequent. We enjoy GT Bray Park in Bradenton, Florida//Potter Park in Sarasota, and a few undisclosed locations where we film, and also test. Our field requirements are typically the following with exceptions of course.

-Places that do not have many people
-Open fields that make it great for easy landings, and provide easy visibility from the sky
-Area with recognizable landmarks (makes landings easier specially during long range FPV)
-We like to remain 8-10 miles away from ANY airport.

We appreciate your interest in meeting up with us. Simply send an email to steve@xrokets.com and ask when the next time and place we will meet up at is. We encourage everyone to come out and meet our team and bring your R/C items out to have fun. All we ask is that if you see anyone flying, driving, or using any RC item, please wait until they return to check if interference between your radio and anyone present is happening. This way we can minimize crashes, injuries and accidents.

We encourage for you to bring your R/C cars, planes, boats and whatever other R/C item you have. This way you can enjoy some r/c'ing and meet the team and friends. We do not charge as we are just a social group to help introduce folks to the hobby and have fun. The more folks we have present, the better the fun we can have.

Expect a nice chill environment that is kid friendly, parent friendly, and we are just there to have fun. We welcome everyone and ask that everyone is kool with each other, and enjoy the company. We do expect parents to parent their children. What is meant by this is we do not like people randomly touching or being careless around the expensive equipment. Be mindful that R/C airplanes can range from a couple of hundred, to tens of thousands of dollars, if your kid breaks it you just bought it. This is the agreement we have with each other.

Absolutely!!!! Ask away, just please don't do so when folks are engaged in R/C'ing. Let them finish then approach with any questions. We don't mind the questions, just want to make sure not to crash or wreck.

We want everyone to understand that we do not care who you are, or what you do; when you are here with us we are all equals, and we are here to have fun. We do not welcome any drama. We have folks from all walks of life.

YES PLEASE!!!!. We absolutely love to see home made R/C items. We may have questions!!!!

Please dont power it on until touching base with the folks on site; this is to help avoid crashes due to interference.

Simply reach out to steve@xrokets.com with questions.

We use ALL donations ONLY for XROKETS.COM projects. If you wish to donate to a specific project simply indicate so and we will allocate your donation to a specific project.

Absolutely!!! Feel free to bring something for yourself and your family. At times we usually order a pizza, or food to be delivered. This is of course depending the size of the group as well as how many contribute to it.

Meeting at one of our testing locations or non-advertised locations is typically a blast. We like to keep those locations private as many are in members houses, lands, or are simply areas of interest particular to us. We expect those locations to remain private and not disclosed to anyone.

For starters, a broken plane. We are glad to help you gather up the debris 🙂

Crashing is part of learning this hobby. R/C pilots and drivers try to plan as much as possible for the unknown variables, but realistically this is just one small portion of a successful flight/drive.

Most likely. We try to record highlights of our flights, drives, and operations just to compile videos for our YouTube channel, as well as many members own Youtube channels.

We don’t, however, we often get folks that need something small to either repair or fix for a run. Our philosophy on this is if we have it and can part ways with it, we will.

Yes, there is. We follow a simple rule…. Don’t be a jerk. We are a family friendly group which means we behave as such. If you will be joining us, we expect you to agree to those terms.

YES PLEASE!!!! Many of the children that come out with their parents to meet up with us have park flyers. It becomes a lot of fun when a few of these show up.

When we are out with our toys we ask that all minors have their parents with them. We also ask parents to parent effectively as to ensure that none of the equipment gets damaged.

Sure. Just check with our members, if you don’t have their contact info just email: steve@xrokets.com

We are very trustful folks. However, we understand. Bring an NDA or equivalent over. We are always glad to talk shop with folks.
