Servos, radios and other electronics were also presented to the curious public, such as the newest Egodrift releases, the new Scorpion and Kontronik ESCs and other goodies. In addition, the weekend was an opportunity for guests to make many purchases at discounted prices or buy one of many great deals to make the visit truly worth while.

Guests could also lounge around on the viewing areas or in the cafeteria where food was purchasable as usual, however most people chose to stay outside due to the unusually warm weather. Unlike most years, jumpers were enough to keep warm, proving as a pleasant surprise. 

Demos were also held as part of the program, with many brands showcasing their products through their talented pilots who arrived from all over the world to attend. This also meant some epic crashes occurred over both days. 

Overall, Rotor Live was a successful event, and is an amazing start to the 2025 season.
