Atlanta Hobby was originally launched in 1978 by Cliff Whitney as a side job in high school, then known as Whitney’s Glider Supply. Cliff went on to become well-known in the photographic world as the visionary behind the world’s first online photo storage and sharing systems, developing Wolf Camera’s internet presence and strategy as well as technology instrumental in the development of AOL’s “You’ve Got Pictures” service. In addition to being a sought-after consultant on retail and internet strategy, Cliff built the family of companies that form Atlanta Hobby, including Sierra-Ridge Wholesale and Mercury Adhesives. Utilizing his expertise in aviation. RC products, and photography, he built AtlantaHobby.com into one of the nation’s premiere specialty online retailers for hobby and commercial RC products and unmanned aerial systems, as well as founding Mercury Adhesives, developing and distributing advanced adhesives for hobbyists. In addition, Cliff hosts the RC Radio Network and produces a biweekly multimedia broadcast about RC with special guests and news.
