Where is that coming from? Who is pushing that narrative? Even the diehard MR users aren't saying that from what I've read here and elsewhere. The hobby was o/k before they came along, would have been o/k without them ever coming to be, and will continue to be o/k even with only a percentage of pure MR pilots joining the AMA. The internet, ARF and foamies, and electrics have probably done more to bring folks into the hobby over the past 10 years than anything else, even MRs.

Just got the AMA mag for Sept...late as usual. No MR on the cover.
