There are no other manufacturers. Only one.
Dave, after Mikes announcement I was prepared to let it die. What set me off again was Darin's 80% of failures are user related comments. That and your assumption that we aren't working on our setups. Like we go out twice a week and burn crap up every run and learn nothing. Not your words I know. But that's how you come across.
Although I must confess that I am perplexed by the fact that a change is coming. If the problem is with some of us users................why bother making a change at all? Because Doug and I are displeased? That makes for bad math.
I know a few people too. Our club has members. I probably know most of the racers you know too. Very few are willing to take on an issue of any sort. Ever draft a rule? Of course you have. Get lots of help? Not even close. Like you, I have to speak (type?) for them. Accept for me, I also have to defend their honor. The dialog has made them think they're not even smart enough to run the class. This power spec isn't supposed to require a degree in electrical engineering. Some will argue that but you and I know that to be true. It wasn't intended to be dominated by guys with data loggers and feeler gauges and extreme prop modification skills.
AQ while not saying that there is/was a problem has through their actions shown that they agree that the motors could be made better. More reliable hopefully. Predictable even?
Thank you Mike. I appreciate you and AQ responding in some way to our concerns instead of simply saying that you need to dig deeper or find another class.
