I'm wondering how many "noob's", not unlike myself,( even after 5 years I;m still learning new things about this hobby) started out late in life. I myself didn't even know back then that RCU existed. I joined a local club and subscribed to a lot of different related magazines on the subject.
That being said, I doubt many "noob's" jump into this with both feet without knowing someone that's already involved in the hobby. I'm sure there may be some, but as you all well know , this is not a cheap hobby at all. And as such , I think we all have a responsibility to pass along what we've learned. At least to the best of our abilities anyway. And we also have a responsibility to not pass along any information that we are not sure is accurate. Good post , one and all. And some type of rating system may be good, just not sure it's totally needed.
