Default RE: OFFICIAL Discussion for the Pros and Cons of Clones in the Market

I'm with Dale on this, RCU (and its Mods) are pro clone and that ain't right. I believe they are illegal and that is why no hobby shops stock them, in the US or Australia. If you don't like the price of a particular make or model then bad luck, don't buy it. I can't afford a ferarri does that mean China should make cheap ones for me, no. Also just because some company has cloned in the past doesn't make it OK now, back then the internet was much smaller and places like this were very small or non existant but it still angered the people it affected. Sure the cheap price allows more people into the hobby but how many of those have given up because there cheap nasty clone kept breaking.
