Curious as to how long this program has been available?

Not like the AMA to keep a success story secret. Therefore, I suspect the opposite.

I would suspect the vast majority of people who walk into an RC hobby shop are already aware of their options and have made their decisions. On the flip side, those who purchase their drones via impulse at Wal Mart or similar, I doubt the store, at the cashier level is even aware of this program if they'er even aware of the AMA.

I suspect someone sold this idea for the great surge in membership it would produce. At a potential cost of 1/3 of AMA revenue. Where the reality is, it's just some ill-engineered fluff intended to con the members into believing Muncie is actually doing something. Another waste of time, money and resources.
