ESPN is about competition.
ESPN is about advertising, the competition is just the stuff in the middle of the commercials. Problem no RC company has a lot of financial muscle as compared to many of the other events your see on ESPN. It will be a long time before the AMA ever sees the light of ESPN.

I think that you will find that Futaba is very involved with the Indy Racing (IRL). That takes big bucks and is shown on ESPN

Have you ever seen a Futaba commercial on air? Not saying that RC couldn't make it to ESPN, just unlikely. There are, however, many channels which would be more likely like Discovery. My buds at FlyingThingz have been all over the cable networks, and now airing on Discovery Kids channel. They are members of the AMA ... so I guess you could say the AMA is already on air.

Most control line guys are REAL modelers. So we would expect postive responses.
