I so agree! But may I add. The Hobby in general is in a state of decline , and not just 2rOS, , but across the board in all the scales, You have a couple of generations , that cant build a dam thing and for the most part dont even know how to use tools! And as long as the current manufacturers continue to load up there products with crappy over price electronics, over priced ready to run cars ( Make affordable kits) and Track Systens that are realistic , the hobby and 2R OS will continue to decline,

Young people can't build models? Uh, ok:
