Mag reviews are worthless, although they do provide some good pictures of the airplane under construction. But consider this, when was the last time you read a review that said the model was junk and not worth the money? Have you ever read a review that suggest the model has alot of problems that must be addressed by the owner/builder?

I subscribed to R/C Report for a few years, they at one time were critical of some airplanes in there reviews. I canceled my subscription because everything being reviewed was great with no problems. To me RC Report, like the other mags lost credibility, sorry Dick P.

In addition, consider the person that reviews models are receiving the kit/accessories for free to do the review. Do you think reviewers are going to say that product is junk and risk the free ride........ I don't think so! Reviewers have the same problem as politicians, when you accept free stuff your credibility from that point on is reduced!
