      Well, I can say, that I personally have enough tips and tricks in my arsenal to fill an entire magazine.... There's much information to learn about boating. For ex. An article on parallel vs series wiring, changing stock connectors to bullets, hull setups for all types, prop choice based on motor... And the list goes on.

          A truly smart publisher would charge the advertisers, and produce an ONLINE magazine... no print/distributions cost losses.. !!

          We, the appreciative audience, get access to the write-ups, reviews, tips & info.. and the sponsors' advertised lines for free. !

          yeah, Im an information freeloader !

              I subscribed to the previous magazine since it first appeared down here in Australia, a good read plagued by sponsored equipment reviews... sponsor supported hardware lists,.. and editor/columnist hosted/attended events....
              The content worthy a glance but it's coverage limited and focused on a small marketing window.

              Market appreciation will sink or swim this replicant of last century's popular magazine.

              That being said Im all for something more interesting than lifestyle or HotCar mags at the auto repair shop !.

                I sent an email to RC Car asking about the RC Boat Issuse an I wanted to know if was going to be a monthly Mag or by Monthly and they said this Magazine as it stnads right now is a special Issuse and they are working on another issuse and it should be out around December of this year.

                They also said alot of people had been calling RC Car alot asking about this Magazine and if they kept getting the response that they have been getting they will keep doing the Magazine and may make it a Monthly or a by Monthly Magazine.

                        Read pages 76 and 77 about how to re-power an Aquacraft Top Speed 3 tunnel written by Jerry Dunlap, Built and run by Brian "Snowman" Duaas a Futaba driver along with help from lohring Miller of gas Dyno fame. Brian I think holds SAW record with this or similar combo. Made me smile as I was lucky enough to Win this boat at the Hobart, IL race last weekend. I did not know what I was going to do with it .....I know now LOL. I called the publisher today looking to subscribe and was told they really did not know how it would sell. I told them you might be surprised how many old guys like me enjoy a magazine and told her some like to read on line also. Anyway I was told issue #2 is in the works kind of on the down low. NOT ANYMORE
                        Mike
                        BTW make sure you sign up for the FREE raffle to win a boat ESC.
