Ah the hate card, I knew it would show up.
Let me TRY to explain this for those viewing the thread that don't know any better, or have failed to see the big picture.
There is a reason that race sites are set up like this.

It's not because we don't have anything better to do. It's to protect spectators, participants, the organizations, and the best interest of model boating.
I don't care who are, accidents happen. Any number of things can go wrong. To run a boat this size and speed in a park like this one with absolutely no regard for public safety is VERY irresponsible.
HummmOK!
And that is what someone who is truly dedicated to promoting, and has the best interest of model boating in mind would do. He would run it at a venue that doesn't have the inherit risks that this site does. Too much to ask?? Really??
[QUOTE=D. Newland;570818]Wil, I really hate doing this, but you said you want to help/promote the hobby. My advice: Don't run that boat at that pond anymore. You had waterfowl scared in the first video, and people scared in the second. The 4 inches of pond barrier will not keep that boat contained in the pond if it hits shore.
I sure hope the Rx was in a water tight compartment for that second run, as I cringed when I saw the "no hatch" shot. Especially since you put both runs on YouTube as promotion. Delete the vid's and get a more responsible video to promote that boat, as it does run very well (on 8S...).
That's how you can help/promote the hobby.[/QUOTE]
If you think that an accident anywhere in the country doesn't have the potential to cause you problems keeping or finding a place to run your model boats, you are sadly mistaken. The internet is a double edged sword.
Clearer now?
I am just one of many that is going to be sideways in the road if some yahoo with no common sense messes my hobby up for me.
Please use your heads out there fellas!!

You're right Doug! I guess these boats can only be run at sanctioned races where there is a barrier fence!
lets be realistic. These boats are bought and run by a wide variety of users that run them in all sorts of places.
We get your point, its not going to change anything so would you please let this thread be informative and stop cramming freak accident scenarios by us?
Thank you : )Comment

This is the first thread I've ever seen derailed BY a mod.
Usually they are here to keep this from happening.

Seems to me that this is more that someone has some sort of a personal issue with Bill rather than a problem with what he's doing with RC boats. I would think that if this is true, they should take it to him on a personal level instead of on a public forum. Just Sayin'Comment
