Auer Ace Hobbies – Auer Ace Hobbies is committed to sharing the fun of RC hobby!
Maybe someone could talk to their local hardware store owner to stock RC aeromodelling products. All they would have to do to start is hang an RC airplane in the store to get attention. Then go from there. It would mean
cross-over business and an attention-getter.
The hardware store wouldn't have to depend on RC sales to stay in business. They could start out with used equipment to see if there was a market and direct curious customers to the nearest flying field and club. Hardware stores already carry many products that modelers use, like adhesives, paints, wood, nuts, bolts, etc. Worth a shot. Either that or p...s and moan about what's happening to the hobby/sport. There are other hardware stores and businesses that could do the same.
