The MSRP for all these resources is $1592, but you can get lifetime access to the Agile Project Management Mastery Bundle for $29 - a 98% discount off the cost of the individual courses. Read the rest

Everybody's flown a paper airplane. But what if you could fly on a paper airplane? Until we invent shrink-ray technology, the PowerUp X FPV Video Paper Airplane Kit will have to do - but it's as fun as that sounds and more.
