Default RE: FAQ in beginners

ORIGINAL: MinnFlyer

Are you beginning to see the CHALLENGE that writing entails? This is one of the most difficult things about doing something along the lines of an FAQ.
Anyone can write an FAQ, but most people would (unintentionally) raise more questions than they would answer.

Here's the bottom line....

RCU WILL have a beginners FAQ.

It's just going to take some time.

If you look at post 32 I think you will see that my point was that the FAQ's need steer away from specific product recommendations or endorcements. Rather they should attempt to provide answers to the more generic terms like how to compare differents types of radios, engines, and planes.

If someone wants to know if an lt-40 is a better plane then an Eagle II that should be left to "old" post a thread method and count up the responses.

FAQs covering computer vs nocomputer radios (regardless of brand) ball bearing vs bushed engines I think would be of great help to everyone and yes they would be difficult to write in a manner that prevent more questions from arising.
