I'll make a deal with ya, when I see a full scale Edge or Extra electric at the next airshow, I'll give electrics a consideration but until then, electrics are meant to run the power in my house and that's about it for me
Oh, and the magazine subscriptions were gifts, so when they expire they wont be getting my money to renew. LOL...

Well mtwister,
If you don't like it, don't subscribe. I am surprised at all the heli mags too.
I think their are about four mags dedicated to helis right now.
Electric helis have become the fastest growing segment of our hobby.
But, there are still more glow plane flyers out there than any other portion R/C aircraft.
Since I fly slimers, electrics and helis , I appreciate all the articles that you have no interest in.
I read most magazines cover to cover. Even the articles that I find boring or for newbees.
Some of us crave the education, others don't!
Model aviation has become incredibly diverse over the last 2 decades.
Get used to electrics, they are here to stay! I love flying my glow planes and helis.
But, I hate slimy oil all over my models! So, I fly more electrics than glow.
On the other hand, I hate charging batteries all the time.
The fact is, I get bored with every aircraft at some point.
So, I am glad that I have a little bit of every aspect of the hobby.
Not to mention being able to help other R/Cer's that are venturing into a new aspect for their first time.
Helping others is my favorite part of the hobby.
