Hey that's species-ist, we squirrels have enough to deal with.... The outwitting squirrels society
Yes, I see your point (I think) but how many articles have you seen lately in MHW which are aimed at the beginner? Not many....This is exactly my point. Where can you go to get impartial advice on what to buy, where to buy it and how to operate it?
A few extra $ on the cover price would be a small price to pay for a little editorial impartiality, the revenue gained from this would help pay for review items and I for one can't see that major manufacturers would pull advertising after a little prodding from an astute reviewer.
Let me explain, MHW has reached a critical mass, it is distributed all over the world in x number of countries, a monopoly in most, it has (or would have if respected) some clout meaning that if there were issues with a machine the manufacturer would be given more impetus to modify and compete in order to keep a reputation.
Not only that but the inclusion of clap-trap like the "budget 3D" article, yes that was the title, not, "on board electronics are quite good now aren't they", can only serve to confuse the novice reader and alienate the more experienced among us.
Stephen,

| There is no need to carefully hand carve throttle curves with a GV-1. There is also no need to hand build tail rotor rev mixing, tail rotor offset when using good onboard electronic devices(these are called modern HH gyros).
One does not have to chisel out throttle/cyclic-throttle/tail rotor mixes from the remaining bits of wood.
Speaking of paddles..they can be made from wood.....wood blades ends specifically and they perform better than many bought plastic units when you know what you are doing. Unfortunately they come pre carved in an airfoil shape. They can be carved from glass blades also as several clever RR individuals have shown. I guess it all boils down to a narrow or broader way of thinking if you ask me. One cannot please all of the people all of the time unfortunately.

The draft copy of your next article looks like it is up to MHW standards, fill it out to 2000 words and send it in, I'm sure it will get into print.
