Got to say, I absolutely love ideas that lead to change that leads to innovation.
Having said that, I do empathise with those that don't. There's a little Luddite in everyone I guess.
Must say, It's sad to see RCU so empty compared top how it used to be. Wasn't that many years back when it was a hive of activity, balsa cutting, glow plugs, vigorous debate.
I believe there is still a Sticky of a post published in 1936 at the top of one of the pattern forums... something about making a soft mount for a OS GT33 out of old car tires, an empty 8 track cassette and a horse shoe.
Marvellous stuff.
I think what you are trying to say is that all this innovation is slowly killing off the sport.......or at least making it very boring to watch....If those Contras go any slower they will need to be flown indoors !!!!
Bring back that sweet and exciting sound of the 4 stroke I say.....
