Guys,

I sent you an e-mail, but got no response so I'll ask here.
In the review process, I was under the assumption that a reviewer bought his own product, then did a review on it. Correct?

I'm asking because I had a question regarding a "confirmation number" or "confirmation of shipping" from the manufacturer. Is someone (RCU ) supposed to pay for the products I review?

E-mail, or PM me if you want more specific details about all this, and the reason I'm asking.

Thanks in advance,

Jetts

Any and all acquisition of review product for our magazine is done strictly through RC Universe. If a vendor sends you something at no charge then it is always at their own risk that it may or may not appear in our magazine. We will only publish reviews that are well written, have detailed quality digital photos and that have edited video. Any reviewer can put in a "reader review" in our product guide.

As far as what it seems you are asking the answer is no. RCU is not going to or supposed to pay for the review product. The manufacturer will either bill you for it or if they send it at no charge or discount it is at their own risk (as explained above) since we did not coordinate directly with them.

Then to simplifiy it for my simple mind let's say the "co." sends it to me free, and I do a review, then just submit it, via my "editors tab" correct?

I'm just wondering about this varification number thing.

Anyhow, I hoping to hear from "the Co." as to what's going on with the product, and hope to submit a review soon.
Thanks again,

Jetts

Edited video? Huh?

Digital photos? (can scanned 'film' photos work too?!)

Sorry, just being a pain...

If the photos look good scanned that is fine.

jett - you don't need video for the product guide quick user reviews. The video we require of writers who expect to get something in the magazine http://www.rcuniverse.com/magazine
