Description
People in the USA are worried about the effect of government tariffs on the cost of radio controlled models and equipment. In this video I will show that even with 125 percent tariffs, the hobby is still much cheaper today than it was in 1980.
Radio control transmitters, receivers, servos and other parts used to cost far more back in the 1980s than they do today and I don't expect that to change. If you fly RC planes, quadcopters or drones then be prepared for some pain but reflect on how much more things used to cost just 45 years ago.
