regardless of the special interest group, its a group outside of AMA that requires a separate membership and shouldn't have free rain to speak for the community without our knowledge or approval. The impression a lot have is that a few are trying to shape the hobby based on their idea of what it should be and not what the hobby would like or needs, lots of "I feel and I think it should be" vs hey lets do a poll and ask the community . Anyway a great hobby for sure, have had the chance to fly rc all over the world for about 30 years now and have made a ton of friends! That's what it should be about and again my opinions are just that.
Cheers!
