The sale of Hobbico directly ties in with my thread down in the AMA sub forum one year ago , "Our Industry is Suffering" quoted from M.A. magazine April 2017, and I don't expect things to be getting any better any time soon . Whether or not HK or anyone else buys Hobbico , the sad fact is that the RC model airplane hobby isn't growing , and once the drone fad is replaced by the next greatest thing for the young techies who were us when we (and the hobby !) were young , will there really be enough of us left to support an "Industry" that's seen it's best days behind it ?
