Some are better than others, but there are good and bad in every lot.
My rub has always been that I absolutely hate telling intelligent, technically informed, non-RC acquaintances the cost of our engines. It never fails to amaze anyone, and usually brings about questions on sanity. Sometimes I'm the one asking, too.
Yet I continue to spend...so I guess maybe I answered my own question. The market will support what the consumer will bear.
Still remain curious as to why though.
I hope you dont tell the misses the true cost ! I sure dont , although its more my guilty concence rather than her what her reaction would be . She never has once complained about the cost but just says why do you need another one . Good question for which I have no good answer . Cheers the pope
