SSA Booth April 4-6 at nations largest RC exhibition
On Thursday,
My guess is this should go over quite well! Huge exposure to some very enthusiastic "hobbyists" with a passion for flight. Looking forward to reports.
Curt Lewis -95
Sadly Curt, the age profile in RC flying - inside RC Clubs - is not so different from that of Soaring clubs. Having attended quite a few of the very good Toledo shows, the audience there is of the 60+ male population.
We had a very active RC Soaring group here in Chicagoland make a great presentation at one of our Winter meetings. They talked at length about their fascinating x-country and other contest flying, these were guys in the 30-40 age group. I offered a free flight to each of them at the Chicago Glider Club as a thank you, none of them ever showed up.
I'll continue displaying my LS8 at my RC club's annual Scale show where it gets great attention but recruiting new members is not really a direct consequence.
