RE: Beginners FAQ?? We need your help!!!
I understand where you're coming from on this one, I really do. But, speaking from relative newcomers perspective (only been at this about a year) sometimes you don't know what you don't know! That's where this FAQ will come in handy.
A good example is I had no idea you could by an electric starter that is "panel ready". I didn't even know what "panel ready" meant. All I knew is when I bought my gear, I had a fuel pump and an electric starter with alligator clips and when I went to hook it up to this cool looking thing the guy at the hobby shop said I needed with my field box, all I had was positive and negative holes. If I'd known you could buy these things panel ready, that's what I would have done. Instead I had to ask my father in law to help me solder the leads on my new equipment.
This is one area where I think the FAQ can come in handy, educating the newcomer on what to watch out for when purchasing new gear.
