tianci, recently I was given a private tour of the electronics repair dept of one of the largest internet retailers of rc products located in my area. Guess what, there were literally
hundreds of these cheap import controllers (returns) that were stacked up to be repaired or destroyed! This is where I got my info first hand. I was being purposeful in my long explanation above about the "fresh oats". You have a terrific grasp of spoken/written English. Some don't. Let me give you a little history about me. I retired March 15th, 2009
from the Nursing profession & find myself financially secure with plenty of time to finally do what I want to & enjoy myself. That being said, I agree with you, it's not about having
money to blow. It's about getting the most value for your hard earned money. I guess you can say, I've reached a point in my life that I am no longer going to compromise my values/ethics & am not going to take any BS off anyone! (Not that I ever did). Some of these folks are going to realize that it may not be to their advantage to endorse 2nd rate equipment or "lead sleds"! You show me anyone that enjoys a "sponsorship" and I'll show you all the rest of us out here that subsidizes them with our purchases. So before these
people take anyone to task, they better think twice because the future of their sponsorship is at risk. Regards___TNWalker
