Today, I'm thrilled to be in conversation with none other than Nico Gastaldi, one of the best thrust vector aerobatic jet pilots worldwide. Coming to us from France, Nico brings his wealth of experience with hundreds of thrust vector flights on J-10, Mephisto, and Ares, offering us a masterclass in the intricate world of thrust vectoring aerobatics.

Join us as Nico walks us through his process for gear selection, assembly, radio setup, trimming, center of gravity adjustment, and gyro tuning – all essential elements for achieving max performance in turbine jets.

But that's not all; Nico opens up about his latest ventures with PAU and RCGadgetz. We not only delve into their just-announced Pulse sport jet but also get some initial details into a future thrust vector jet currently in development by Nico and the PAU team, anticipated for release later this year.
