Welcome to Hover and Smile!


This site serves as a personal gallery, resource, and journal of my entry into the RC Helicopter hobby and related experiments. As I’m learning how certain things work, trying out new ideas, and generally not trying to crash, I’ll be recording articles, updating photo and video galleries and sharing links. Perhaps some of this information will help you as well!

If you’re really that curious about who I am… here’s an older picture of my ugly mug:

As of July 2009, I’m a whopping 33 years of age, and I work primarily in software development.

The other occasional contributor to this site, my father, Rick Krystof, a.k.a. ‘He who I blame for getting me into this hobby’ and my mother, Carol Krystof:

Enjoy your stay, and wish me luck hovering!
