The heyday of glow has come and gone. The electric foamies that are currently surging dont seem to attract the long term hobby interest . The buy it and fly it , narrow interest aspect is more fad-like. Not an broad interest like the older , imagine it, design it, build it, fly it hobby.
Culture shift, demand for gratification and move on. The hobby itself seems to be fading fast.. Glad to have been here to live its golden age, sorry to see people walking away from it. As with so many other things.
