The COVID-19 pandemic has upset nearly all of the recent RPM events. Virtual modeler events have become more common.
Hindsight 20/20 is a virtual RPM, gathering on the Zoom platform. These events have been held on Saturdays and feature several 30 minute presentations on prototypes and modeling. Registration is required but there is no event cost.
