RE: Something Appears to be Missing
It remains to be seen IF the DX6 IS for 1/2A or just electric park flyers like the manufacturer claims. They don't even state WHAT the range is........[&:] I picked one up last week and will try it out in a racer.
We're the WRONG guys here to debate whether or not 1/2A glow is interesting enough to get column inches in a monthly magazine. The guys who make their livings selling ad space and producing a product that sells [instead of getting returned from the news stands] are the ones to take up the argument with. Look what happened to RCM, they became uninteresting to enough readers who switched to RC FLYER that they had to close the doors. Do a little bit of market research and look at the 1/2A engine suppliers who have now moved on to doing stuff that pays the bills. The next area to suffer will be the availability of all the other stuff, like tanks, engine mounts and props. Places like RCU is where the interest will be kept alive.
