Well. . it sure would X-jet. . . .you need to remember, it only needs to function for a "little while". . . .then it has officialy "worked", and can be sold to t he public. If it blows itself into tiny molecules of super-heated tin and lead due to over current AFTER it has "worked". . who are we to say it never worked???

Maybe so. However, pictures can be deceiving.

You should have come to JN, Jon. . you could have helped get more "surveillance shots", and we could have set up a "Jim Drew Watch" . .people designated to follow him and sit in front of his rig, keeping an eye on him.

Jim is not only banning people, but he is now editing individual posts made by others, to his own liking. http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showp...9&postcount=64 You would think that he'd be busy editing his hopping algorithm, or studying up on basic electrical theory.

You think that with RCG being the parent company of FG now, that JD will get his own little "I can moderate it if I want" thread here on FG???

I sure hope not!!!
