Other forums I should crawl?

[Flying Monkey fab]

This is by far the best RC forum I have run across but are there others I should be looking at as I get to know this stuff?

Thanx

RCGroups is a good place for information but some questions are likely to draw flame as they are not as forgiving of noob questions.

Agreed... research there, community here.

Edit: Actually, honestly, research here too.

There's a lot of good research that can be done on RCGroups, but the general consensus is, "Did you use the search function?"

You might get that here too, but for the most part, we're nicer about it.

I'm a big believer in searching before asking but to a nub to anything sometimes you don't even know what to search! I appreciate the attitude here. I appreciate helpers as well. I'm a helper on other forums where I know enough to do so.

I like RCG, just the same comments there as here, just more advanced community and more diversity. FT tends to be more foam and multirotor and beginner stuff, RCG has everything.

Dunno. Wilsonman's Bugatti is the most advanced RC build I have seen yet.

Ya, but there are only a few of us on this website that build balsa and on RCG, there are many.

Ditto to what others have said. RCG is an excellent resource, but not quite as beginner friendly as here. I also go there to check out any issues on new models before I pull the trigger. That way you reduce the risk of the manual being incorrect, or missing a critical item that needs to be modded. I would also recommend Motion RC's Hobbysquawk forum for warbird/edf lovers. Very nice an helpful community there as well. I also follow a few helicopter forums since there isn't much chopper activity here.
