Badass! 2006 TAS DVD Is it worth it?

Hands down YES! In my opinion, this is the best RC DVD on the market. If you can't make up your mind, let me help. DOO IT! Flying Giants Video Productions has pulled out all the stops for this one. The DVD is a 90 minute all out production of the Invitational Freestyle from the 2006 Tucson Aerobatic Shootout. From the spectacular rolls of Chip Hydes, to the high energy flying of Mark Leseberg and the amazing performance of Quique Somenzini,(not to mention the young thumbs of Kyle Woyshnis, and Zak West) Flying Giants Video Productions has it covered. From the freestyles to the boat race, this DVD is packed with the FG vibe and is a definitely must see.

OK, if FG will ship to an APO address I'll buy a hat and the DVD. The hat's darn useful over here and the video would be great for those moments when the flying bug bites but can't be scratched.

So the question: will FG ship to an APO address?????

I bought this because it looks good from the preview. The one I want to know if it's good enough or not is the Wildberry TAS video.

Much better than the WildBerry, IMO. Their vid was more of a documentary style. The FG vid is full of awesome huckin, FG vibe, and flows really really well. I wouldn't hesitate showing this to get folks interested in the hobby.

Like I said above, the Wildberry is more of a documentary. Two disk full of RC planes. It dragged on and on for me. While it was well done, it was just another video about RC planes IMO.(still worlds over what had been previously put out there) One thing that I really liked about the FG video was that they showed Beavis's crash, then they showed the full next round.

Wow! Thanks for the props 50! I'm flattered to the point where I might steal that text and use it on our swag page!

Just to be clear, this is definitely not a Wildberry Production. I wouldn't even compare the two. Wildberry's stuff is a must have for every modeler's collection. Buy all the Wildberry DVD's, you won't be disapointed.

Our DVD was produced by a couple of dudes (me & Toro) running around with an XL2 and a goofy microphone, on a severe budget. All in all, I think you'll enjoy it, and the price is right.

Also, don't forget about the ETOC. That DVD is off the shizzy ala Fred Midgett style!
