It would appear so. I think there was an expected increase in hobbyists and sales due to the Multi Rotor fad that did not happen as anticipated. Some retailers saw the numbers of people who bought cheap quad copters and thought they would want to " advance " into the hobby. This is one thing that I can actually agree with Frank about and that is the AMA got caught up in the farce as well. I don't think anyone was maliciously planning to screw anyone, just thinking this new tech would end up being a boon for the " hobby " and they were wrong.
