It seems that a new forum is in order due to the fact the "Product is in the hands of the end user."

Not disagreeing that a Synergy forum shouldn't exist, but I noticed his tagline says Team Synergy. Did he buy it at a discounted rate or get it free? To me a true end user is one who pays full pop and has no ties or affiliations with the company.

 good point if it was at the end user!! definatly needs a forum of it's own but only testers and sponsered pilots are flying at the moment hope the early info on build and flight, and pictures in build helps some

Im sure money from JK and TB will grease the wheels of the forum creation though.

Look at the e-Raptor forum. There 145 posts in there. I will bet if you do a search for Synergy there are a heck of a lot more posts.

Funny how they are paid advertiser. Sounds like the sound of green bits of paper needing brought in.

Heres a thought Mark. How about you have the best forum for the Synergy by beig th largest and most informative site, rather than forcing JK and TB's hand to give you money ahead of time to create a forum.

Why not just have the best forum, and allow them to help support it.

You can attract many more flies with honey rather than vinegar.

Ouch. If that is the way it happens then I guess it wouldn't really be a FORUM. It would be an advertising site or nothing more than an interactive magazine. I thought Forums were free for enthusiasts to discuss all aspects of heli's. When some heli's forums contain little posts and yet the official launch of this heli is close and the posts are getting extensive it would make common sense to start a Forum in support of it.

I cannot understand RR policy on this issue.

TT is supporting RR. Synergy is welcome to do the same. Right now there is only one active Synergy topic in the New and Emerging forum for the last 24 hours. And it's about creating a new synergy forum. Please continue to use the New and Emerging forum for the next 30 days, until release day. On that day RR will create the new forum.


anyone else read this differently?

If it isn't obvious by now, I don't know how else to explain the very plain fact.

RR is not free, its costs you to upload pics, its costs advertisers to have an advert here which has to be funded by the retailer and eventually us.

So without being too blunt RR is not about the enhancement of the hobby but pure financial gain....If your pockets are big enough you can get what you want.

Or take the high moral road and use a different forum.

its not the fact that it is a finaincial matter. I can understand that.

However its the WAY in which it was handled.

how about this for a sensible and non inflammatory method of doing things. Create the forum, and use the volume of traffic to create THE major synergy Technical reference area. That way it will become important all on its own. THEN the manufacturer will then support it.

The way it is being done just now (money first, then a forum) annoys people which is having exactly the opposite effect of what is required.

Back to the more flies with honey rather than vinegar

mark has indicated that unless synergy "support" RR they won't get a forum untill the 28th of the month. how can this be in anyones interests but marks? there is synergys in circulation now. there is a build thread, does e raptor have one, does e raptor have a release date, does eraptor have more posts than synergy.......answer to all of those is no. does TT support RR?......yes.

mark has worked hard to get to this stage but, sometimes however what is lost in the roundabout you gain on the straight. would it not be better to have a pro-active synergy forum early and perhaps the powers that be will say, ohhhh, he is supporting our product and start to support RR?

time will tell i guess.
