2016 WRAM show to feature drones! #DroneDay #Drones
Check out more info on this year’s WRAM show, February 26-28, 2016.
One of the country’s largest hobby trade shows, and the biggest on the East Coast, is the
annual R/C show held by the Westchester Radio Aero Modelers, at a new venue since 2012, the Meadowlands Exposition Center at Harmon Meadow, Secaucus, NJ.
In addition to exhibits by some 150 or more manufacturers and organizations, the show is a magnet for modelers who compete for prizes in a static competition that is staggering for its size and the beauty of the models on display.
Modelers (and exhibitors) from all over the country attend the show, and it is a showcase for all the latest in kits, engines, motors, radio systems, plans, accessories, and other hardware.

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.
